In plants, fruit ripening is a coordinated developmental process that requires the change in
expression of hundreds to thousands of genes to modify many biochemical and …

The quality of fresh and fresh-cut (FC) fruit can be preserved by creating an optimal
atmospheric condition around the product. Extensive research has been reported on the …

Background CB-1 and K326 are closely related tobacco cultivars; however, their cold
tolerance capacities are different. K326 is much more cold tolerant than CB-1. Results We …

Low temperature conditioning (LTC) alleviates peach fruit chilling injury but the underlying
molecular basis is poorly understood. Here, changes in transcriptome, ethylene production …

Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) is a valuable worldwide agronomical crop, with a delicious
fruit highlighted as a functional food with both nutritional and bioactive properties …

Salicylic acid (SA) has been used in reducing chilling injury of horticultural crops caused by
postharvest cold storage. However, effect of SA on fruit flavor quality in response to chilling …

Apricot is highly susceptible to chilling injury during low temperature storage, while methyl
salicylate (MeSA) can alleviate chilling injury and enhance the postharvest quality of fruit …

Cold storage of fruit may induce the physiological disorder chilling injury (CI); however, the
molecular basis of CI development remains largely unexplored. Simulated conditions of CI …

The identification of functional elements encoded in plant genomes is necessary to
understand gene regulation. Although much attention has been paid to model species like …
