Tartaric acid (TA) is an obscure end point to the catabolism of ascorbic acid (Asc). Here, it is
proposed as a “specialized primary metabolite”, originating from carbohydrate metabolism …

Ethylene‐responsive factors (ERFs) are plant‐specific transcription factors involved in cold
stress response, and raffinose is known to accumulate in plants exposed to cold. However, it …

Cold stress has always been a major abiotic factor affecting the yield and quality of
temperate fruit crops. Ethylene plays a critical regulatory role in the cold stress response, but …

Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) is one of the most widely cultivated warm‐season
turfgrass species around the world. Cold stress has been a key environmental factor that …

Sugar content is an important trait of fleshy fruit, and elevating Suc levels is a major goal in
horticultural crop breeding. Here, we examined the sugar content in two varieties of the …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a cold-sensitive crop but frequently experiences low-
temperature stimuli. However, tomato responses to cold stress are still poorly understood …

Salinity is one of the major environmental stresses that limit crop growth and productivity. In
this study, the FvMYB24 gene that encodes an R2R3-type MYB transcription factor was …

Banana fruit is susceptive to chilling injury (CI), resulting in quality deterioration. Although
ethylene treatment alleviates banana CI symptom, the underlying mechanism remains …

Grapevine (Vitis ssp.) is a deciduous perennial fruit crop, and the canes and buds of
grapevine should withstand low temperatures (LTs) annually during winter. However, the …

Salt stress, a type of abiotic stress, impedes plant growth and development and strongly
reduces crop yield. The molecular mechanisms underlying plant responses to salt stress …
