Assessment of Fruit Quality and Fruit Morphology in Androgenic Pepper Lines (Capsicum annuum L.)

, 2020
Anther or microspore culture induced haploid and double haploids (DH) are increasingly being utilized by breeders since it can shorten breeding time by achieving complete homozygosity within a single generation.

Identification of Two New Mechanisms That Regulate Fruit Growth by Cell Expansion in Tomato [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Key mechanisms controlling fruit weight and shape at the levels of meristem, ovary or very young fruit have already been identified using natural tomato diversity. We reasoned that new developmental modules prominent at later stages of fruit growth could

Abscisic Acid Deficiency Alters Epicuticular Wax Metabolism and Morphology That Leads to Increased Cuticle Permeability During Sweet Orange (Citrus sinensis) Fruit Ripening

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Citrus fruit ripening is coupled with the synthesis and deposition of epicuticular waxes, which reduces water loss during fruit postharvest storage.

Fruit syndromes in Viburnum: correlated evolution of color, nutritional content, and morphology in bird-dispersed fleshy fruits

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2020
Premise A key question in plant dispersal via animal vectors is where and why fruit colors vary between species and how color relates to other fruit traits.

Identification and comprehensive characterization of the OVATE family protein in litchi [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Fruit shape is a commercially important trait in litchi, yet the genetic mechanisms that regulate its development remain largely unresolved. OVATE Family Proteins (OFPs) are plant-specific transcriptional regulators known to play key roles in fruit ...

The genetic basis of fruit morphology in horticultural crops: lessons from tomato and melon.

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2013
[EN] Fruits represent an important part of the human diet and show extensive variation in size and shape between and within cultivated species. The genetic basis of such variation has been studied most extensively in tomato, where currently six ...

Impact of Frost on the Morphology and Chemical Composition of cv. Santulhana Olives

Applied Sciences, 2022
Frost events and extreme weather phenomena greatly affect several characteristics of the olive fruit. This study evaluated the impact of frost on the morphology, composition (moisture, fat, fatty acids, tocopherols, and total phenolic contents), and ...
