Transcriptomics of Improved Fruit Retention by Hexanal in ‘Honeycrisp’ Reveals Hormonal Crosstalk and Reduced Cell Wall Degradation in the Fruit Abscission Zone [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Apples (Malus domestica Borkh) are prone to preharvest fruit drop, which is more pronounced in ‘Honeycrisp’. Hexanal is known to improve fruit retention in several economically important crops. The effects of hexanal on the fruit retention of ‘Honeycrisp’

A multifaceted comparison between the fruit-abscission and fruit-retention cultivars in ornamental crabapple [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The ornamental crabapple is a multipurpose landscaping tree that bears brilliant fruit throughout the winter. However, whether or not its fruit persists after maturation is specifically correlated to cultivar characteristics. In this work, we screened two different types that display fruit-retention (“Donald Wyman,” “Red Jewel,” and “Sugar Tyme”) and ...

Identification of Candidate Genes Involved in Fruit Ripening and Crispness Retention Through Transcriptome Analyses of a ‘Honeycrisp’ Population

Plants, 2020
Crispness retention is a postharvest trait that fruit of the ’Honeycrisp’ apple and some of its progeny possess. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of crispness retention, progeny individuals derived from a ’Honeycrisp’ × MN1764 population with ...

Physiological Responses and Fruit Retention of Carambola Fruit (Averrhoa carambola L.) Induced by 2,4-D and GA3

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2009
One of the problems in cultivation of carambola fruit is the high of flower and fruit drop during fruit development. To understand these problems and to improve fruit retention, the content of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and total sugar in carambola fruit

Effect of foliar application of micronutrients on growth, fruit retention and yield parameters of acid lime (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle)

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2022
The deficiency of micronutrients is widespread in Nepal, which results in poor growth, fruit drop and lower yield. June drop and pre-harvest drop reduce fruit retention and yield of Citrus.

Understanding colour retention in red chilli pepper fruit using a metabolite profiling approach

Food Chemistry: Molecular Sciences, 2021
Carotenoids are the pigments responsible for conferring the characteristic deep red colour to chilli pepper. The post-harvest retention of this colour is a key trait that governs the price of the produce.
