Mango is an important tropic fruit, but its production is highly restricted by anthracnose diseases. Mango anthracnose development is related to the fruit-ripening hormone ethylene, but how the pathogen senses ethylene and affects the infection remains ...

Ripening Characteristics of a Tomato Mutant, dark green
Abstract Respiration, ethylene production, firmness, polygalacturonase activity, cell wall composition, and soluble uronide content were measured during ripening of two tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) genotypes, ‘Manapal’ and dark green

Climacteric fruit ripening, as it occurs in many fruit crops, depends on a rapid, autocatalytic increase in ethylene production. This agriculturally important process has been studied extensively, with tomato simultaneously acting both as a model species

Functional analysis of the Arlequin mutant corroborates the essential role of the Arlequin/TAGL1 gene during reproductive development of tomato. [PDF]
Reproductive development of higher plants comprises successive events of organ differentiation and growth which finally lead to the formation of a mature fruit.

Ripening Behavior of the Green Ripe Tomato Mutant
Abstract The fruit ripening behavior of the green ripe mutant ( Gr ) of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) was examined. Green ripe fruit are climacteric and evolve increasing amounts of ethylene after harvest; however, the time ...

Reduced auxin signalling through the cyclophilin DIAGEOTROPICA impacts tomato fruit development and metabolism during ripening [PDF]
Auxin is an important hormone playing crucial roles during fruit growth and ripening, however, the metabolic impact of changes in auxin signalling during tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) ripening remains unclear. Here, we investigated the significance of

Sl-ERF2, a Tomato Ethylene Response Factor Involved in Ethylene Response and Seed Germination [PDF]
Ethylene response factors (ERFs) are plant transcriptional regulators mediating ethylene-dependent gene expression via binding to the GCC motif found in the promoter region of ethylene-regulated genes.

Re-evaluation of transcription factor function in tomato fruit development and ripening with CRISPR/Cas9-mutagenesis [PDF]
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a model for climacteric fleshy fruit ripening studies. Tomato ripening is regulated by multiple transcription factors together with the plant hormone ethylene and their downstream effector genes.

A comparative transcriptomics and eQTL approach identifies SlWD40 as a tomato fruit ripening regulator [PDF]
Although multiple vital genes with strong effects on the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) ripening process have been identified via the positional cloning of ripening mutants and cloning of ripening-related transcription factors (TFs), recent studies ...
