The plant hormone ethylene plays a key role in climacteric fruit ripening. Studies on
components of ethylene signaling have revealed a linear transduction pathway leading to …

Tomato ripening is a highly coordinated developmental process that coincides with seed
maturation. Regulated expression of thousands of genes controls fruit softening as well as …

Fruit development and ripening are unique to plants and represent an important component
of human and animal diets. Recent discoveries have shed light on the molecular basis of …

▪ Abstract Ethylene regulates a multitude of plant processes, ranging from seed germination
to organ senescence. Of particular economic importance is the role of ethylene as an …

Elucidating the mechanisms involved in ripening of climacteric fruit and the role that
ethylene plays in the process are key to understanding fruit production and quality. In this …

Ethylene regulates many aspects of the plant life cycle, including seed germination, root
initiation, flower development, fruit ripening, senescence, and responses to biotic and abiotic …

The ripening of fleshy fruits represents the unique coordination of developmental and
biochemical pathways leading to changes in color, texture, aroma, and nutritional quality of …

Fruit ripening is a complex and highly coordinated developmental process involving the
expression of many ripening-related genes under the control of a network of signalling …

The current review focuses on the significant role of nitric oxide (NO) in modulating ethylene-
induced fruit ripening responses in plants. In this context, hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and …

Fruit ripening is a unique aspect of plant development with direct implications for a large
component of the food supply and related areas of human health and nutrition. Recent …
