The Climacteric in Ripening Tomato Fruit [PDF]
Phosphofructokinase is identified as the regulator reaction activated at the onset of the climacteric rise in respiration of the ripening tomato fruit (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill). The concentration of ATP in the fruit increases to a maximum value after the climacteric peak of respiration is past.

Contrasting Roles of Ethylene Response Factors in Pathogen Response and Ripening in Fleshy Fruit
Fleshy fruits are generally hard and unpalatable when unripe; however, as they mature, their quality is transformed by the complex and dynamic genetic and biochemical process of ripening, which affects all cell compartments.

Role of Ethylene in Fruit Ripening [PDF]
There have arisen two schools of thought concerning the role of ethylene in fruit maturation: the classic view of Kidd and West (26) and Hansen (22) that ethylene is a ripening hormone, and a recent interpretation by Biale et al. (7, 3, 4) that it is a by-product of the ripening process.

Roles of Abscisic Acid in Fruit Ripening
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant growth regulator, and it plays a variety of important roles throughout a plant’s life cycle. These roles include seed development and dormancy, plant response to environmental stresses, and fruit ripening. ABA concentration

Abscisic acid biosynthesis, metabolism and signaling in ripening fruit
Fruits are highly recommended nowadays in human diets because they are rich in vitamins, minerals, fibers and other necessary nutrients. The final stage of fruit production, known as ripening, plays a crucial role in determining the fruit’s quality and ...

The use of ethylene-suppressed lines to assess differential sensitivity to ethylene of the various ripening pathways in Cantaloupe melons. [PDF]
Physiological characterization of ethylene-suppressed Cantaloupe Charentais melons (Cucumis melo var. cantalupensis Naud cv. Védrantais) revealed that some ripening-associated events, like degreening of the rind and cell separation in the peduncular ...

Relationship between nondestructive firmness measurements and commercially important ripening fruit stages for peaches, nectarines and plums [PDF]
Fruit firmness measurement is a good way to monitor fruit softening and to predict bruising damage during harvest and postharvest handling. Ripening protocols traditionally utilize a destructive penetrometer-type fruit firmness measure to monitor ...
