Fruit quality traits play an important role in consumption of kiwiberry (Actinidia arguta). The genetic basis of fruit quality traits in this woody, perennial and dioecious fruit crop remains largely unknown. This study aimed to identify the underlying genetic basis of fruit quality traits in A. arg...
