Physiological and Transcriptome Analysis Revealed the Effect of ABA on Promoting Persimmon Fruit Postharvest Deastringency [PDF]
Persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) fruit can accumulate proanthocyanidins (tannins) during development, which causes astringency and affects consumption. The hormone abscisic acid (ABA) has been reported to play a key role in fruit ripening and softening.

Distinct Transcriptomic Profile Underlying High CO2 and Ethylene-Induced Deastringency in ‘Daebong’ Persimmon Fruit [PDF]
Astringent persimmons (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) require effective postharvest deastringency treatments due to their high soluble tannin content at harvest.

Two novel anoxia-induced ethylene response factors that interact with promoters of deastringency-related genes from persimmon. [PDF]
A hypoxic environment is generally undesirable for most plants and stimulates anaerobic metabolism. It is a beneficial treatment, however, for the removal of astringency from persimmon to improve the fruit quality after harvest.

Study on the Effects of Tannase on the De Astringency of Pomegranate Juice [PDF]
Reducing the punicalagin content is an effective strategy for eliminating the astringency of pomegranate juice. In this study, pomegranate juice was used as the raw material, and tannase was applied to convert punicalagin into ellagic acid and gallic ...

Transcriptomic profiling analysis to identify genes associated with PA biosynthesis and insolubilization in the late stage of fruit development in C-PCNA persimmon [PDF]
PA-enhanced content causes astringency in persimmon fruit. PCNA persimmons can lose their astringency naturally and they become edible when still on the tree, which allows for conserves of physical and financial resources.

Prediction of tannin content and quality parameters in astringent persimmons from visible and near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
IntroductionTannin content and postharvest quality characteristics of persimmon fruit are often determined by the destructive analysis that consumes time, does not allow the acquisition of data from the same fruit continuously, and requires expensive ...

DkNAC7, a novel high-CO2/hypoxia-induced NAC transcription factor, regulates persimmon fruit de-astringency. [PDF]
Artificial high-CO2 atmosphere (AHCA, 95% CO2 and 1% O2) has been widely applied as a postharvest de-astringency treatment for persimmon fruit. AHCA increases expression of transcription factors, including ethylene response factors (DkERF), that target ...
