Fleshy fruit ripening is a unique biological process that involves dramatic changes in a
diverse array of cellular metabolisms. The regulation of these metabolisms is essentially …

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade consisting of MKKK, MKK, and MPK
plays an indispensable role in various plant physiological processes. Previously, we …

Ripening of fleshy fruits involves both diverse post-translational modifications (PTMs) and
dynamic transcriptional reprogramming, but the interconnection between PTMs, such as …

Strawberry (Fragaria× ananassa) fruit ripening is regulated by a complex of cellular signal
transduction networks, in which protein kinases are key components. Here, we report a …

Abstract Background Papaya (Carica papaya) is an economically important fruit cultivated in
the tropical and subtropical regions of China. However, the rapid softening rate after …

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK/MPK) cascades play crucial parts in plant growth,
development processes, immune ability, and stress responses; however, the regulatory …

An intrinsic and genetically determined ripening program of tomato fruits often depends
upon the appropriate activation of tissue-and stage-specific transcription factors in space …

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade is a highly conserved signaling
transduction module that transduces extracellular stimuli into intracellular responses in …

Key message This review contains the regulatory mechanisms of plant hormones in the
ripening process of climacteric and non-climacteric fruits, interactions between plant …

Fruit ripening is a very well-orchestrated physiological process of Angiosperm species which
is under developmental, hormonal and epigenetic regulation and is finely tuned by …
