A3) the application of the 673 rd nucleotide species from the 5' end of the coding gene of the apple transcription factor ERF4 as a detection object in predicting the hardness of the apple fruit to be detected; the coding gene of the apple transcription factor ERF4 is x1) or x2) as follows: x1) the nucleotide sequence is a DNA molecule shown in the sequence 1 in the sequence table; x2) the nucleotide sequence of which is a DNA molecule shown in the sequence 2 in the sequence table; the hardness of the fruit of the apple to be detected with the 673 rd nucleotide species from the 5 'end of the coding gene of the apple transcription factor ERF4 being only C is higher than that of the apple to be detected with the 673 rd nucleotide species from the 5' end of the coding gene of the apple transcription factor ERF4 being C and G; the apple to be detected is red Fuji, zisaiming pearl and/or filial generation of the red Fuji and the zisaiming pearl.
9. Use according to claim 7 or 8, characterized in that: the fruit hardness is the peel hardness and/or the pulp hardness.
