Apple fruit periderms (russeting) induced by wounding or by moisture have the same histologies, chemistries and gene expressions [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2022 Russeting is a cosmetic defect of some fruit skins. Russeting (botanically: induction of periderm formation) can result from various environmental factors including wounding and surface moisture.

Characterization of MdMYB68, a suberin master regulator in russeted apples [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 IntroductionApple russeting is mainly due to the accumulation of suberin in the cell wall in response to defects and damages in the cuticle layer. Over the last decades, massive efforts have been done to better understand the complex interplay between ...

Physiological Disorders and Fruit Quality Attributes in Pomegranate: Effects of Meteorological Parameters, Canopy Position and Acetylsalicylic Acid Foliar Sprays [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Meteorological parameters and occurrences of cracking (CR), russeting (RS), and sun scald (SS) symptoms were monitored in a pomegranate cv. “Wonderful” orchard planted in a W–E orientation, during a 3-year study.

Peridermal fruit skin formation in Actinidia sp. (kiwifruit) is associated with genetic loci controlling russeting and cuticle formation [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2021 Background The skin (exocarp) of fleshy fruit is hugely diverse across species. Most fruit types have a live epidermal skin covered by a layer of cuticle made up of cutin while a few create an outermost layer of dead cells (peridermal layer).

MdMYB52 regulates lignin biosynthesis upon the suberization process in apple [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Our previous studies, comparing russeted vs. waxy apple skin, highlighted a MYeloBlastosys (Myb) transcription factor (MdMYB52), which displayed a correlation with genes associated to the suberization process.

Low cuticle deposition rate in 'Apple' mango increases elastic strain, weakens the cuticle and increases russet. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Russeting compromises appearance and downgrades the market value of many fruitcrops, including of the mango cv. 'Apple'. The objective was to identify the mechanistic basis of 'Apple' mango's high susceptibility to russeting.

Naturally russeted and wound russeted skins of mango (cv. ‘Apple’) show no differences in anatomy, chemical composition or gene expression [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe mango cultivar ‘Apple’ is commercially important in Kenya but highly susceptible to russeting. Russeting refers to an area of fruit skin where the primary (epidermal) surface has been replaced by a secondary (peridermal) surface. The objective was to

Effects of Polyhalite Fertilization on Skin Quality of Potato Tuber [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 The protective peel of potato tuber consists of periderm tissue, the outmost cell layers of which contain corky cell walls and are termed “skin”. The skin protects the tuber from water loss and pathogen invasion, and its visual appearance is a highly ...

Russeting in Apple is Initiated after Exposure to Moisture Ends: Molecular and Biochemical Evidence [PDF]
Plants, 2020 Exposure of the fruit surface to moisture during early development is causal in russeting of apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.). Moisture exposure results in formation of microcracks and decreased cuticle thickness.
