Advanced Science, EarlyView.Researchers have identified a citrus chimera with distinctive tissue origins and carotenoid profiles. It is discovered that fruit tissues develop from all three cell layers but in different proportions. A key transcription factor, MYB107, regulates β‐cryptoxanthin production by directly activating carotenoid biosynthesis genes, explaining why some ...

Two highly divergent alcohol dehydrogenases of melon exhibit fruit ripening-specific expression and distinct biochemical characteristics [PDF]
, 2006 Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) participate in the biosynthetic pathway of aroma volatiles in fruit by interconverting aldehydes to alcohols and providing substrates for the formation of esters.

Nectarine Fruit Ripening and Quality Assessed Using the Index of Absorbance Difference (IAD)
International Journal of Agronomy, 2013 Consistency of fruit quality is extremely important in horticulture. Fruit growth and quality in nectarine are affected by fruit position in the canopy, related to the tree shape.

Fruit cell culture as a model system to study cell wall changes during strawberry fruit ripening [PDF]
, 2016 Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa, Duch.) fruit is characterized by its fast ripening and soft texture at the ripen stage, resulting in a short postharvest shelf life and high economic losses.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Neoeriocitrin enhances osteogenesis in hDPSCs and bone regeneration by targeting Beclin1 to inhibit ubiquitination‐mediated degradation, thereby stabilizing Beclin1 and increasing its protein abundance to activate autophagy. Abstract Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are dental‐derived mesenchymal stem cells with robust multipotent differentiation ...

Silencing Sl-EBF1 and Sl-EBF2 expression causes constitutive ethylene response phenotype, accelerated plant senescence, and fruit ripening in tomato [PDF]
, 2010 The hormone ethylene regulates a wide range of plant developmental processes and EBF (EIN3-binding F-box) proteins were shown to negatively regulate the ethylene signalling pathway via mediating the degradation of EIN3/EIL proteins.

Development and application of rice starch based edible coating to improve the postharvest storage potential and quality of plum fruit (Prunus salicina) [PDF]
, 2018 The study investigated the possibility of enhancing the shelf life of plum fruit coated with rice starch-ι-carrageenan (RS-ι-car) composite coating blended with sucrose fatty acid esters (FAEs). Film solution (starch 3%, carrageenan 1.5% and FAEs 2%) was

Co‐Selection of Low Cadmium Accumulation and High Yield During Tomato Improvement
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 39, October 20, 2025.This study finds that large‐fruited tomatoes accumulate less cadmium (Cd) compared to wild tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. This is because, during the improvement process of tomato, the low‐Cd allele LCT1A and the large fruit allele fw3.2T are closely linked, leading to a co‐selection event.
