Abstract Development, maturation and ripening of fruits has received considerable
experimental attention, primarily due to the uniqueness of such processes to plant species …

The regulation of tomato fruit development and ripening is influenced by a large number of
loci as demonstrated by the number of existing non-allelic fruit development mutations and a …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is an established model to study fleshy fruit development
and ripening. Tomato ripening is regulated independently and cooperatively by ethylene …

Tomato ripening is a highly coordinated developmental process that coincides with seed
maturation. Regulated expression of thousands of genes controls fruit softening as well as …

Fruit ripening is a highly coordinated developmental process that coincides with seed
maturation. The ripening process is regulated by thousands of genes that control …

Ripening represents a complex developmental process unique to plants. We are using
tomato fruit ripening mutants as tools to understand the regulatory components that control …

A thorough understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying ripening is the prerequisite
for genetic manipulation of fruits for better shelf-life and nutritional quality. Mutation in …

Development and ripening in fruit is a unique phase in the life cycle of higher plants which
encompasses several stages progressively such as fruit development, its maturation …

The ripening inhibitor (rin) mutation of tomato yields non‐ripening fruit, and the gene
corresponding to RIN, LeMADS‐RIN, is known to encode a transcriptional factor that …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening is regulated co‐operatively by the action of
ethylene and a hierarchy of transcription factors, including RIPENING INHIBITOR (RIN) and …
