Plant hormones have been extensively studied for their roles in the regulation of various
aspects of plant development. However, in the last decade important new insights have …

Seed and fruit set are established during and soon after fertilization and determine seed and
fruit number, their final size and, hence, yield potential. These processes are highly sensitive …

Modern tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) varieties are bred for uniform ripening (u) light
green fruit phenotypes to facilitate harvests of evenly ripened fruit. U encodes a Golden 2 …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening is accompanied by the degradation of
chlorophylls and the accumulation of carotenoids and flavonoids. Tomato SlMYB72 belongs …

A large-scale metabolic quantitative trait loci (mQTL) analysis was performed on the well-
characterized Solanum pennellii introgression lines to investigate the genomic regions …

Fruit ripening is a highly coordinated developmental process that coincides with seed
maturation. The ripening process is regulated by thousands of genes that control …

Over the past decade, systems biology and plant-omics have increasingly become the main
stream in plant biology research. New developments in mass spectrometry and …

Tomato, a widely consumed vegetable crop, offers a real potential to combat human
nutritional deficiencies. Tomatoes are rich in micronutrients and other bioactive compounds …

Auxin response factors (ARFs) are involved in auxin-mediated transcriptional regulation in
plants. In this study, we performed functional characterization of SlARF6A in tomato …

The photosynthesis of green tomatoes contributes to fruit growth and carbon economy. The
tomato auxin response factor 10 (SlARF10) belongs to the ARF family and is located in …
