Genomic variation drives plant flavor diversification

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explains how genomic variation shapes plant flavor by altering the biosynthetic and regulatory pathways of key attributes like sweetness, acidity, bitterness, piquancy, astringency, and aroma. It also discusses how multi‐omics, AI‐assisted breeding, and gene editing can translate this knowledge into plants with improved flavor, nutrition ...

Differential expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes in relation to anthocyanin accumulation in the pericarp of Litchi chinensis Sonn. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Litchi has diverse fruit color phenotypes, yet no research reflects the biochemical background of this diversity. In this study, we evaluated 12 litchi cultivars for chromatic parameters and pigments, and investigated the effects of abscisic acid ...

Polyphenols in Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) Seeds: Comparison of Profiles Among Five Cultivars and Evaluation of Anti‐Inflammatory, Analgesic Potentials

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Among the purified polyphenols derived from five cultivars of litchi seeds, the Heiye cultivar contained relatively higher phenolic contents. The litchi seed polyphenols exhibited anti‐inflammatory and analgesic potentials in vitro and in vivo, which were tightly associated with the major compounds including procyanidin A1, procyanidin A2, and ...

Non‐Target Effects of Some Common Agrochemicals on Various Life Stages and Parasitism Behaviour of Trichogrammatoidea cryptophlebiae Nagaraja, 1979 (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 942-956, August 2026.
This study assessed the non‐target effects of commonly used agrochemicals on the egg parasitoid Trichogrammatoidea cryptophlebiae, an important biological control agent in South African orchards. Agrochemical impacts varied across life stages, with several insecticides allowing adult survival but significantly reducing parasitism and developmental ...

Detection of litchi fruit maturity states based on unmanned aerial vehicle remote sensing and improved YOLOv8 model

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Rapid and accurate detection of the maturity state of litchi fruits is crucial for orchard management and picking period prediction. However, existing studies are largely limited to the binary classification of immature and mature fruits, lacking dynamic

Variability in fruit physico-chemical characteristics of litchi (Litchi chinensis) in Tripura and Asom

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2015
Litchi (Litchi chinensis) improvement has been sought mainly through the selection of improved clones and very little work has been done in planned breeding programmes. The economic importance of litchi has led to the selection and breeding over thousands of years, which resulted in relatively few genotypes because of narrow genetic base and restricted

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2747-2767, August 2026.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

PbrIDD2‐PbrAPX14 Module Functions in the Ethylene‐Mediated Ripening and Senescence Process of Pear Fruit

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4878-4896, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Endogenous H2O2 participated in the ethylene‐dependent ripening and senescence process of horticultural fruit as a secondary messenger; however, the molecular mechanism beneath such a phenomenon has not been fully clarified until recently. By a conjoint analysis of metabolite, enzyme activities, gene expression profiles in AsA‐GSH cycle of ...
