Transcriptomic analysis reveals polygalacturonase genes in Pachypeltis micranthus
The mirid bug, Pachypeltis micranthus Mu et Liu (Hemiptera: Miridae), is a natural enemy of the widespread invasive weed in the tropics, Mikania micrantha. To date, however, there is not any genetic information related to this species. Polygalacturonases

HMMER cut-off threshold tool (HMMERCTTER): Supervised classification of superfamily protein sequences with a reliable cut-off threshold [PDF]
Background: Protein superfamilies can be divided into subfamilies of proteins with different functional characteristics. Their sequences can be classified hierarchically, which is part of sequence function assignation.

Lychee starch coatings enriched with procyanidins showed strong antifungal activity and effectively preserved strawberry quality postharvest, reducing weight loss, decay, and senescence. This highlights their potential as a sustainable natural alternative for shelf‐life extension and fungal control in fresh produce.

Influence of cold storage time on the softening prediction in Spring Bright nectarines [PDF]
With Time-resolved Reflectance Spectroscopy (TRS) the maturity of nectarines at harvest can be assessed by measuring the absorption coefficient at 670 nm (µa 670) in the fruit flesh.

Effects of D-Limonene Nanoemulsion Coating on Post-Harvest Quality and Physiology of Papaya
Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is a climacteric fruit, and its quality will rapidly decrease after ripening. Hence, the storage life of its fruit is short.

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 ...

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality
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 ...
