Studies of genetic diversity and genome‐wide association for vitamin C content in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) using high‐throughput SNP arrays

The Plant Genome
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a source of beneficial compounds though they are generally present in low quantities. We used 40K Axiom and 9K Infinium SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) arrays to (i) explore the genetic variability in 21 varieties and (

The role of ascorbate metabolism and cell wall degradation in atemoya peel browning: insights from multi-omics analysis under modified atmosphere packaging

Journal of Future Foods
Atemoya fruit, prized for their flavor and nutritional value, are susceptible to rapid postharvest deterioration, particularly peel browning, limiting their marketability. This browning process, often linked to oxidative stress and cell wall degradation,

Identifying Host Molecular Features Strongly Linked With Responses to Huanglongbing Disease in Citrus Leaves

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
A bioinformatic analysis of previously published RNA-Seq studies on Huanglongbing (HLB) response and tolerance in leaf tissues was performed. The aim was to identify genes commonly modulated between studies and genes, pathways and gene set categories ...

Sodium dichloroisocyanurate delays ripening and senescence of banana fruit during storage

Chemistry Central Journal, 2018
Banana as a typical climacteric fruit soften rapidly, resulting in a very short shelf life after harvest. Sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) is reported to be an effectively antibacterial compound.

The carbohydrate metabolism and expression of carbohydrate-active enzyme genes in Aspergillus luchuensis fermentation of tea leaves

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionCarbohydrates, which make up 20 to 25% of tea beverages, are responsible for their flavor and bioactivity. Carbohydrates of pu-erh tea change during microbial fermentation and require further research.

Alternative splicing of the PECTINESTERASE gene encoding a cell wall-degrading enzyme affects postharvest softening in grape

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
The firmness of table grape berries is a crucial quality parameter. Despite extensive research on postharvest fruit softening, its precise molecular mechanisms remain elusive. To enhance our comprehension of the underlying molecular factors, we initially

Genome-wide perspective reveals the potential mechanism of maturation differentiation in cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata)

Vegetable Research
Sustainable agricultural production is an effective way to address global climate change and the rapid growth of population, among which the multi-maturing crops play a significant role, but its underlying genetic background has rarely been studied.

Purification and Charcterization of Pectinesterase from Potato

Journal of Al-Nahrain University-Science, 2016
Pectin esterase was extracted from potato and determining its activity were investigated. Crude enzyme recorded specific activity 25.18 U / mg and increasing specific activity of the enzyme after dialysis concetraion recording 107.14 U/ mg, then the enzyme peak after using anion ion-exchange chromatography was recorded a specific activity reached 192 ...

The Atypical Pectin Methylesterase Family Member PME31 Promotes Seedling Lipid Droplet Utilization

Plant Direct
In plants, the primary form of energy stored in seed lipid droplets, triacylglycerol (TAG), is catabolized during germination to support pre‐photosynthetic growth. Although this process is essential for seedling development, it is incompletely understood.
