Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals distinct ethylene – independent regulation of ripening in response to low temperature in kiwifruit
Asiche, William O.; Mitalo, Oscar W.; Kasahara, Yuka; Tosa, Yasuaki; Mworia, Eric G.; Owino, Willis O.; Ushijima, Koichiro; Nakano, Ryohei; Yano, Kentaro; Kubo, Yasutaka (BioMed Central, 2018)Kiwifruit are classified as climacteric since exogenous ethylene (or its analogue propylene) induces rapid ripening accompanied by ethylene production under positive feedback regulation. However, most of the ripening–associated ... -
Low-temperature-modulated fruit ripening is independent of ethylene in ‘Sanuki Gold’ kiwifruit
Mworia, Eric G.; Yoshikawa, Takashi; Salikon, Nadiah; Oda, Chisato; Asiche, William O.; Yokotani, Naoki; Abe, Daigo; Ushijima, Koichiro; Nakano, Ryohei; Kubo, Yasutaka (Journal of Experimental Botany, 2011)Fruit ripening in response to treatments with propylene, 1-methycyclopropene (1-MCP), and low temperature was characterized in ‘Sanuki Gold’ kiwifruit,Actinidia chinensis Planch. Propylene treatment immediately induced ...
