Melon, an alternative model plant for elucidating fruit ripening
Ethylene perception has been studied using Arabidopsis and tomato as model plants during last two decades. Arabidopsis has been an ideal model system for gene identification and subsequent functional analysis of the identified gene. On the other hand, tomato is not only the model of choice to study climacteric fruit ripening but also crops of agronomic importance and hence has been at the foref...
متن کاملFruit development and ripening
Fruiting structures in the angiosperms range from completely dry to highly fleshy organs and provide many of our major crop products, including grains. In the model plant Arabidopsis, which has dry fruits, a high-level regulatory network of transcription factors controlling fruit development has been revealed. Studies on rare nonripening mutations in tomato, a model for fleshy fruits, have prov...
متن کاملRipening Fruit and Abscising
Two structurally divergent endo-p-l,Cglucanase (EGase) cDNAs were cloned from tomato. Although both cDNAs (Cell and Ce12) encode potentially glycosylated, basic proteins of 51 to 53 kD and possess multiple amino acid domains conserved in both plant and microbial EGases, Cell and Ce12 exhibit only 50% amino acid identity at the overall sequence level. Amino acid sequence comparisons to other pla...
متن کاملFruit-specific suppression of the ethylene receptor LeETR4 results in early-ripening tomato fruit.
Tomato is an economically important crop and a significant dietary source of important phytochemicals, such as carotenoids and flavonoids. Although it has been known for many years that the plant hormone ethylene is essential for the ripening of climacteric fruits, its role in fruit growth and maturation is much less well understood. In this study, data are presented which indicate that fruit-s...
متن کاملRegulation of tomato fruit ripening
Fruit ripening is a sophisticatedly orchestrated developmental process, unique to plants, that results in major physiological and metabolic changes, ultimately leading to fruit decay and seed dispersal. Because of their strong impact on fruit nutritional and sensory qualities, the ripeningassociated changes have been a matter of sustained investigation aiming at unravelling the molecular and ge...
