The NAC transcription factor (TF) family is one of the largest plant-specific TF families and its
members are involved in the regulation of many vital biological processes during plant …

Abstract Key Message This review contains functional roles of NAC transcription factors in
the transcriptional regulation of ripening in tomato fruit, describes the interplay between …

Fruits are derived from flowers and play an important role in human food, nutrition, and
health. In general, flowers determine the crop yield, and ripening affects the fruit quality …

Fruit senescence is an inevitable and negative developmental process during postharvest
storage of cherry tomato. To characterize the physiological and molecular mechanisms …

Red leaves in autumn are characteristic of a very early-maturing ripening variety of peach
(Prunus persica). Analysis of the genetic factors and molecular mechanisms associated with …

Peach (Prunus persica) is a typical climacteric fruit, having an obvious peak of ethylene
release during ripening. Transcriptional regulators play key roles in fruit ripening. NAP (NAC …

Chlorophyll (Chl) catabolism and anthocyanin synthesis play pivotal roles in determining the
final skin color of fruits during maturation. However, in peach (Prunus persica) fruit, the …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone that regulates defense responses and leaf
senescence. It is imperative to understand upstream factors that regulate genes of SA …

Fruit ripening is a highly coordinated process at the transcriptional level, requiring a
hierarchical regulatory network formed by transcription factor and ripening-related genes …

Ripening significantly influences fruit quality and commercial value. Peaches (Prunus
persica), a climacteric fruit, exhibit increased ethylene biosynthesis and decreased fruit …
