Impact of pulsed light treatments and storage time on the texture quality of fresh-cut tomatoes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The effect of pulsed light (PL) treatments at fluences of 4, 6 or 8 J·cm-2 on microbial growth, weight loss, pectinmethyl esterase (PME) and polygalacturonase (PG) activities of fresh-cut tomatoes was evaluated through 20 days of storage at 5 ºC ...

Polygalacturonase gene expression and enzymatic activity in salivary glands of laboratory reared and wild populations of Lygus lineolaris (Hemiptera: Miridae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2017
Lygus lineolaris (Palisot de Beauvois, 1818) (tarnished plant bug) is a serious pest of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in the Delta region as compared to cotton in the Hills region of the state of Mississippi in USA. The reason for this is unclear but it

The pgip family in soybean and three other legume species: evidence for a birth-and-death model of evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Polygalacturonase-inhibiting proteins (PGIPs) are leucine-rich repeat (LRR) plant cell wall glycoproteins involved in plant immunity. They are typically encoded by gene families with a small number of gene copies whose evolutionary origin has been poorly

Calcium Nutrition in Fig Orchards Enhance Fruit Quality at Harvest and Storage

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Due to the high perishability of figs, calcium stands out as an important nutrient for orchard management. This study aims to study the pre-harvest applications of calcium chloride in fig orchards. The fig trees were sprayed with 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0%

Polygalacturonase of Erwinia carotovora

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1966
Abstract The polygalacturonase, clearly differentiated from polygalacturonic acid trans-eliminase, produced in the culture fluid of Erwinia carotovora was purified 56-fold by means of acetone precipitation, acetate buffer extraction, and two successive treatments by chromatography on carboxymethyl cellulose.

Molecular analysis of the early interaction between the grapevine flower and Botrytis cinerea reveals that prompt activation of specific host pathways leads to fungus quiescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Grape quality and yield can be impaired by bunch rot, caused by the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea. Infection often occurs at flowering, and the pathogen stays quiescent until fruit maturity.

Cari p 1, a Novel Polygalacturonase Allergen From Papaya Acting as Respiratory and Food Sensitizer

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Papaya has been reported to elicit IgE-mediated hypersensitivity via pollen inhalation and fruit consumption. Certain papaya sensitive patients with food allergy were found to experience recurrent respiratory distresses even after quitting the ...
