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

Under conditions of abiotic stress several physiological and biochemical processes in plants
can be modified. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is toxic at high …

Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an essential multifaceted phytonutrient for both the human diet and
plant growth. Optimum levels of AsA accumulation combined with balanced redox …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) are known for the regulation of plant
development, and the crosstalk between them is important for plant growth. However, the …

A methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) gene is identified in tomato fruit, and its protein's
identity as MsrB5 was determined by phylogenetic analysis and multiple sequence …

A de-oiled crude green algal ethanolic extract (CAEE) incorporated chitosan (CS)-based
edible coating material was formulated and applied on red tomatoes, aiming to minimize …

In this study, headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography–mass
spectrometry, multivariate analyses, and transcriptomics were used to explore the …

Flesh browning (FB) is a common physiological disease of apple fruit during cold storage,
which physiological mechanism was revealed in the present study through analyzing …

Sucrose metabolism is a fundamental process during tomato ripening. Studies have shown
the role of the phytohormone methyl jasmonate (MeJA) in tomato fruit ripening. However, the …

Many fruits are harvested at the early ripening stage and left to attain an edible stage during
the post-ripening process or by ethylene treatment. However, the post-ripening quality of fruit …
