Softening response of 1-methylcyclopropene-treated banana fruit to high oxygen atmospheres
Exposure to high O-2 concentrations may stimulate, have no effect or retard fruit ripening depending upon the commodity, O-2 concentration and storage time among other variables.

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Role of 1-MCP in regulating 'Kensington Pride' mango fruit softening and ripening
Ripening of mango fruit is characterized by softening of flesh which limits its shelf life. 1-MCP is nontoxic gas that delays fruit softening and improves quality of several fruit. Therefore, the role of 1-MCP in regulating fruit softening and quality of

Abstract Background Bananas (Musa species) are an important staple food and cash crop in many parts of the world. The East African Highland cooking bananas form the backbone of food security for millions of Ugandans. The demand for high quality cooking bananas is thus closely linked to their sensory characteristics (which drive consumer preference) and

Ethylene regulation of fruit softening and cell wall disassembly in Charentais melon [PDF]
Cell wall disassembly in ripening fruit is highly complex, involving the dismantling of multiple polysaccharide networks by diverse families of wall-modifying proteins.

Abstract BACKGROUND Black flesh (BF) is an internal disorder in mango, characterized by the development of dark brown to black pigmentation in the inner mesocarp tissue during storage or transport. This study investigated the effects of harvest maturity, low storage or low transport temperatures, and 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) on mango fruit ...

Activity of pectic enzymes involved in the ripening process of lulo (Solanum quitoense Lam.)
In the ripening process of the lulo (Solanum quitoense Lam.) physicochemical changes are produced by pectics enzymes as Polygalacturonase (PG), Pectinesterase (PE) and Pectateliase (PL) that acting on pectics substrates of plant tissue, being responsible

Blueberry fruits undergo rapid softening, which has important consequences for postharvest shelf life. However, the mechanism of softening is not well understood. Here, we examined fruit quality characteristics and cell wall associated fruit softening in
