Apple is classified as a climacteric fruit, characterized by a rapid surge in ethylene levels at the onset of ripening. However, there is significant variation in the degree and timing of ripening and softening among different apple cultivars. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying fruit ...

Abscisic acid (ABA) positively regulates strawberry fruit ripening. ABA accumulation is tightly linked with 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (NCED) expression, a gene that encodes for a key enzyme in the ABA synthesis pathway. In turn, WRKY transcription factors have been reported as one of the...

To elucidate the effect of 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment on molecular and nutritional quality changes during 'Qingcui' plum fruit ripening, metabolomic profiling and transcriptome analysis were conducted to identify key metabolites and differentially expressed genes. Application of 1-MCP...

Anthocyanins are important health-promoting flavonoid compounds that substantially contribute to fruit quality. Anthocyanin biosynthesis and most regulatory mechanisms are relatively well understood. However, the functions of anthocyanin transport genes in strawberry fruit remain unclear. In this...

The NAC transcription factor ripening inducing factor (RIF) was previously reported to be necessary for the ripening of octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) fruit, but the mechanistic basis of RIF-mediated transcriptional regulation and how RIF activity is modulated remains elusive. Here, we...

Objective: Because of the subtropical monsoon climate in most areas of southern China, the protected cultivation is widely applied in cherry production to reduce the impact of the large precipitation in spring. There are still problems such as weak light intensity, short light duration and uneven...
