The strawberry is one of the world's most popular fruits, providing humans with vitamins,
fibers, and antioxidants. Cultivated strawberry (Fragaria× ananassa) is an allo-octoploid and …

Plants detoxify toxic metal (loid) s by accumulating diverse metabolites. Beside scavenging
excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by metal (loid) s, some metabolites chelate …

In contrast to climacteric fruits such as tomato, the knowledge on key regulatory genes
controlling the ripening of strawberry, a nonclimacteric fruit, is still limited. NAC transcription …

Strawberry (Fragaria spp.) has emerged as a model system for various fundamental and
applied research in recent years. In total, the genomes of five different species have been …

Abscisic acid (ABA) is a dominant regulator of ripening and quality in non-climacteric fruits.
Strawberry is regarded as a model non-climacteric fruit due to its extensive genetic studies …

Anthocyanins are visual cues for pollination and seed dispersal. Fruit containing
anthocyanins also appeals to consumers due to its appearance and health benefits. In …

Cold and drought stresses are serious problems of strawberry cultivation in temperate and
subtropical regions. In the molecular regulation system of cold and drought stresses, ICE …

The NAC transcription factor ripening inducing factor (RIF) was previously reported to be
necessary for the ripening of octoploid strawberry (Fragaria× ananassa) fruit, but the …

Fruits of Fragaria species usually have an appealing bright red color due to the
accumulation of anthocyanins, water-soluble flavonoid pigments. Octoploid cultivated …

CRISPR/Cas, one of the most rapidly developing technologies in the world, has been
applied successfully in plant science. To test new nucleases, gRNA expression systems and …
