Blackberries and raspberries, commonly known as Rubus berries, are commercially grown
worldwide across different climates. Rubus berries contain wide array of phytochemicals …

Climacteric and non-climacteric fruits are differentiated by the ripening process, in particular
by the involvement of ethylene, high respiration rates and the nature of the process, being …

Abstract NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC2) transcription factors play important roles in fruit
ripening and quality. The watermelon genome encodes 80 NAC genes, and 21 of these …

In recent years, the ethylene-mediated ripening and softening of non-climacteric fruits have
been widely mentioned. In this paper, recent research into the ethylene-mediated ripening …

Fleshy fruits are characterized by having a developmentally and genetically controlled,
highly intricate ripening process, leading to dramatic modifications in fruit size, texture, color …

Pineapple is one of the most cultivated tropical, non-climacteric fruits in the world due to its
high market value and production volume. Since non-climacteric fruits do not ripen after …

Plant-associated microbes can shape plant phenotype, performance, and productivity.
Cultivation methods can influence the plant microbiome structure and differences observed …

In some cases, polyploidy is an important phenomenon in the evolution of fruit crops.
Polyploidy can be used in fruit breeding programs to develop varieties with higher yields …

The raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) fruit is characterized by its richness in functional molecules
and high nutritional value, but the high rate of fruit softening limits its quality during …

Ethylene can accelerate the postharvest ripening process of kiwifruit, while indole-3-acetic
acid (IAA) delays it. However, the molecular mechanism by which ethylene regulates IAA …
