RNA-Seq of Annona squamosa (cv. Gefner and African Pride) pulp at different stages of growth and ripening.
The samples were obtained from the "Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences" in Guangxi, China. Thirty fruit samples were collected for each cultivar at five stages of growth and ripening between April and July 2019. Fruits from each cultivar and stage were separated into three biological replicates, and pulp samples were collected, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and used for RNA-seq. The sampled time points correspond to 30, 100, and 130 DAP, as well as 6 and 8 DAH.

RNA-Seq of Annona squamosa (cv. Bendi) flowers at different stages of development.
The samples were obtained from the "Lingnan Normal University" in Guangdong, China. The inflorescence meristem (IM), the flower buds (FB), and two stages of flowers (FL1 and FL2) were collected from A. squamosa trees. The flower buds were collected based on their size (3–6 mm). The two flower stages were the mature flowers with partially opened petals (FL1) and mature flowers with opened and faded petals (FL2). These tissue samples were frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80 ºC until use. Equal volumes of RNA from each of the four stages of flower development were pooled, and each sample was prepared by mixing three replicate samples.

RNA-Seq of Annona squamosa (cv. Bendi) normal flowers and malformed flowers.
The samples were obtained from the "Lingnan Normal University" in Guangdong, China. The flowers before open were collected from a normal flower and a malformed flower from A. squamosa trees. All of the flower samples were frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80 ºC until use. Each sample of RNA was prepared by mixing three replicate samples.

RNA-Seq of atemoya (Annona squamosa × A. cherimola) (cv. African Pride) pericarp fruits during post-harvest storage with and without ethylene treatment.
The samples were obtained from the "Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences" in Guangdong, China. Twenty fruits were kept at room temperature with no treatment, and the following four stages were selected for transcriptome sequencing: recently picked fruits (NT-0), cracking at the pedicel (NT-PC-1), moderate cracking at the pedicel (NT-PC-2), and severe cracking at the pedicel (NT-PC-3). Another twenty fruits were immersed in 2 g/kg ethylene for 2 min, transferred into a closed plastic box, and the lid was left open after 24 hours. The following three stages were selected for transcriptome sequencing: fruits 24 hours after ethylene treatment (Eth-24), fruits with pericarp cracking after ethylene treatment (Eth-PC), and no fruit cracking after ethylene treatment (Eth-NC).
Three similar pericarp samples under the same treatment at each stage were collected, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen, and then stored at −80 °C until use. Each sample of RNA was prepared by mixing three replicate samples.

RNA-Seq of atemoya (Annona squamosa × A. cherimola) pulp of split and non-split fruits.
The samples were obtained from the "Lingnan Normal University" in Guangdong, China. All fruits were harvested at 6 months after pollination. Non-split fruits (NSF) and split fruits (SF) were selected at 10 days after harvest. All of the fruit samples were frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80 ºC until use. Each sample of RNA was prepared by mixing three replicate samples.
