An invaluable transgenic blueberry for studying chilling-induced flowering in woody plants

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Many deciduous woody crops require a minimum level of chilling to break dormancy and allow the seasonal growth of vegetative and floral buds.

Peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] Cultivars Differ in Apparent Base Temperature and Growing Degree Hour Requirement for Floral Bud Break

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Bud break timing in peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] is determined by the sequential fulfillment of a chilling requirement (CR) and a heat requirement (HR) for development. Genotypic variation in CR has been well characterized in peach.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Bud dormancy in Japanese pear

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2013
In this paper, after reviewed recent advances in research of endodormancy, research on Japanese pear were reported. In the case of Japanese pear, endodormancy was induced by low temperature of 5oC, without effect of day length. Chilling requirement (CR)

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Effects of chilling on the expression of ethylene biosynthetic genes in Passe-Crassane pear (Pyrus communis L.) fruits [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Passe-Crassane pears require a 3-month chilling treatment at 0 C to be able to produce ethylene and ripen autonomously after subsequent rewarming. The chilling treatment strongly stimulated ACC oxidase activity, and to a lesser extent ACC synthase ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

The effect of traditional handling, processing and storage methods on the quality of dried fish in small scale fisheries in Nigeria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Most of the fish marketed throughout Nigeria are in either smoked or dried form. The technological requirement for other forms of preservation like chilling and freezing cannot be afforded by the small scale fisher folk.

Seleção de genótipos de pessegueiro F1 com baixa necessidade de frio hibernal Selection of F1 peach genotypes with low chilling requirements

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2009
A baixa necessidade de frio é característica fundamental para que se possa cultivar economicamente o pessegueiro em condições de clima subtropical, devendo ser este, portanto, o principal objetivo dos programas de melhoramento nestas regiões.

Genetic Dissection of Bloom Time in Low Chilling Sweet Cherry (Prunus avium L.) Using a Multi-Family QTL Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Bloom time in sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) is a highly heritable trait that varies between genotypes and depends on the environmental conditions.
