Fruit Development in Sweet Cherry [PDF]
Fruits are an important source of vitamins, minerals and nutrients in the human diet. They also contain several compounds of nutraceutical importance that have significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory roles, which can protect the consumer from diseases, such as cancer, and cardiovascular disease as well as having roles in reducing the build-up of ...

The NAC side of the fruit: tuning of fruit development and maturation [PDF]
AbstractFruits and seeds resulting from fertilization of flowers, represent an incredible evolutionary advantage in angiosperms and have seen them become a critical element in our food supply.Many studies have been conducted to reveal how fruit matures while protecting growing seeds and ensuring their dispersal. As result, several transcription factors

Fruit Development in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Luscious cherries, sweet peaches, creamy avocados, and tropical papayas are just a few of the tasty treats that come to mind when we think of fruit. Indeed, fruit come in all shapes and sizes, from gigantic pumpkins to the tiny fruit of the duckweed Wolffia angusta, which are as small as a grain of salt.

Fruit development and diversification [PDF]
The evolutionary success of angiosperms depends largely on the unique feature of producing fruits, which protect and nourish the seeds, and at maturity facilitate efficient seed dispersal. Fruits have long been an important energy source for humans, providing us with nutritious proteins and vitamins.

Fruit development and epigenetic modifications [PDF]
SummaryFruit development is a complex process that is regulated not only by plant hormones and transcription factors, but also requires epigenetic modifications. Epigenetic modifications include DNA methylation, histone post‐translational modifications, chromatin remodeling and noncoding RNAs.

Towards a Widening of Romanian Nuclear-Stock Plum Varieties
To reduce economic losses caused by viruses and phytoplasmas, one of the main preventive measures is to use 'certified' plant material. A nuclear-stock plum collection under insect-proof house is conserved at FRDS Bistrița and consists in twenty-one ...

Gynoecium and fruit development in Arabidopsis
ABSTRACT Flowering plants produce flowers and one of the most complex floral structures is the pistil or the gynoecium. All the floral organs differentiate from the floral meristem. Various reviews exist on molecular mechanisms controlling reproductive development, but most focus on a short time window and there has been no recent review

Molecular basis of fruit development [PDF]
The fruit is an important plant structure. Not only does it provide a suitable environment for seeds to develop and serve as a vehicle for seed disposal, but it is also an indispensable part of the human diet. Despite its agronomic and nutritional value and centuries of intensive genetic selection, little is known about the molecular mechanism of its ...

Increase of plum resistance to natural infections with Plum pox virus
The mechanical inoculation of the plum leaves of the trees in the nursery, in the first year of growth, has stimulated the activation of the plants' defensive system, fact that lead to their resistance to natural Plum pox virus (PPV) infections.
