Fruit softening, which is a major determinant of shelf life and commercial value, is the
consequence of multiple cellular processes, including extensive remodeling of cell wall …

High-throughput sequencing for transcript profiling in plants has revealed that alternative
splicing (AS) affects a much higher proportion of the transcriptome than was previously …

This study was determined to investigate the efficacy of chitosan (CS)‐based apple peel
polyphenols (APP) composite coatings to enhance the storage quality of strawberries …

Fruit growth and ripening are controlled by multiple phytohormones. How these hormones
coordinate and interact with each other to control these processes at the molecular level is …

Firmness is one of the most important fruit quality traits in strawberries. The postharvest shelf
life of this soft fruit is highly limited by the loss of firmness, where cell wall disassembly plays …

Accumulating evidence shows that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays various physiological roles
in plants, such as seed germination, root organogenesis, abiotic stress tolerance, and …

Cultivated strawberry (Fragaria× ananassa) is one of our youngest domesticates, originating
in early eighteenth-century Europe from spontaneous hybrids between wild allo-octoploid …

Background While there is now a significant body of research correlating apple (Malus x
domestica) fruit softening with the cell wall hydrolase ENDO-POLYGALACTURONASE1 …

The development of biopolymer films is crucial for the replacement of conventional plastics.
Tremendous effort is made to improve their performances by introducing biopolymers …

Alternative splicing (AS) is a key post‐transcriptional regulatory mechanism, yet little
information is known about its roles in fruit crops. Here, AS was globally analyzed in the wild …
