Plants respond to various stresses by triggering the expression of genes that encode
proteins involved in plant growth, fruit ripening, cellular protein homeostasis, and tolerance …

Fruit ripening is a physiological process that involves a complex network of signaling
molecules that act as switches to activate or deactivate certain metabolic pathways at …

Plants face various adverse environmental conditions, particularly with the ongoing changes
in global climate, which drastically affect the growth, development and productivity of crops …

The rapid softening of postharvest fruit has a serious detrimental effect on quality and market
value. In this study, postharvest grape berries treated with hypotaurine (HT) or H 2 O 2 were …

Increased synthesis of H 2 O 2 is observed during the initiation of fruit ripening. However, its
association with plant cell processes triggering the maturation of fruit has not yet been …

The red light (R) to far-red light (FR) ratio (R: FR) regulates plant responses to salt stress, but
the regulation mechanism is still unclear. In this study, tomato seedlings were grown under …

The underlying mechanisms governing parturition remain largely elusive due to limited
knowledge of parturition preparation and initiation. Accumulated evidences indicate that …

Transcriptomics and metabolomics are methodologies being increasingly chosen to perform
molecular studies in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), focusing either on plant and fruit …

Background Schisandra chinensis, an ancient member of the most basal angiosperm
lineage which is known as the ANITA, is a fruit-bearing vine with the pharmacological effects …

Hydrogen peroxide is an important factor involved in the senescence and quality
deterioration of postharvest fruit. However, few studies have examined hydrogen peroxide …
