AaSIZ1‐Mediated SUMOylation of AaMYB31 Positively Regulates Freezing Tolerance in Actinidia arguta

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Several studies revealed that wax accumulation enhances plant tolerance to cold stress. However, the molecular regulation mechanism of wax synthesis under cold stress is still unclear in Actinidia arguta, a hardy kiwifruit species. Here, we found that cold stress significantly induces wax accumulation in Actinidia arguta leaves, which is ...

Amounts and Types of Epicuticular Leaf Waxes among Onion Accessions Selected for Reduced Damage by Onion Thrips

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2019
Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci) is the main insect pest of onion (Allium cepa), and feeding damage routinely causes serious yield losses. Lower amounts of epicuticular waxes on onion leaves have been associated with fewer onion thrips and less feeding ...

Assessing Moisture Content of Coolstored Blueberries During Water Loss Scenarios Using Hyperspectral Imaging

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.
Water loss is a key factor affecting the postharvest quality and shelf life of blueberries, and storage conditions (humidity and time) play an important role in regulating water retention capacity of stored berries. This study aims to explore the variation of moisture content (MC) in blueberries under different storage humidity and storage time ...
