Peach post-harvest ripening is a complex developmental process controlled by plethora of genetic and epigenetic factors. Specifically, it leads to protein, lipid nucleic acid degradation, all resulting in cell death. Substantial research has been directed at investigating peach regulatory mechanisms underlying genomic, metabolomic transcriptomic modifications occurring during this stage, much progress made thanks the advent Next Generation Sequencing technologies. This review focused on latest multi-omics studies, with aim highlighting most significant results further regulation key genes involved processes related physiology. By offering an exhaustive overview omics profiles, provides comprehensive description gene expression changes their correlation stages, including some treatments, as well volatile organic compound modifications. However, present work highlights that, due complexity process, recent investigations do not elucidate molecular mechanisms, making studies still necessary. For reason, points for future activities innovative breeding programs are discussed, relying trusted multi-omic approaches.

Several fleshy fruits are highly affected by cracking, a severe physiological disorder that compromises their quality and causes high economical losses to the producers. Cracking can occur due physiological, genetic or environmental factors may happen during fruit growth, development ripening. Moreover, in fruits, exocarp plays an important role, acting as mechanical protective barrier, defending against biotic abiotic factors. Thus, when biochemical properties of cuticle + epidermis hypodermis affected, cracks appear skin. The identification genes involved such cell wall modifications, biosynthesis transport cuticular waxes, membrane deposition associated transcription provides new insights better understand how cracking is Amongst major stresses causing excessive water development, leading imbalances cations Ca. This review focus on expression key these pathways, influence potential for molecular breeding programs, aiming develop cultivars more resistant under adverse conditions.

Anthocyanins are widely distributed secondary metabolites that play an essential role in skin pigmentation of many plant organs and microorganisms. have been associated with a wide range biological pharmacological properties. They also effective agents the prevention treatment chronic diseases. Berries particularly abundant these compounds; therefore, their dietary intake has health-promoting effects. The aim this study was to identify determine anthocyanin content selected species cultivars berry fruits, such as raspberry, blackberry, red currant, blackcurrant, highbush blueberry, consumed by Europeans. concentrations anthocyanins were determined HPLC, identifying individual compounds: cyanidin-3-O-glucoside, pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside, delphinidin-3-O-glucoside, delphinidin-3-O-rutinoside, cyanidin-3-O-rutinoside, delphinidin-3-O-galactoside, cyanidin-3-O-galactoside, malvidin-3-O-galactoside. experimental data showed fruits differ significantly contents anthocyanins. Among all tested, blackberry blackcurrant characterized highest (sum), while lowest found currant fruits. Additionally, compounds particular different.

Abstract Almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D.A. Webb] is an economically important, specialty nut crop grown almost exclusively in the United States. Breeding and improvement efforts worldwide have led to development of key, productive cultivars, including ‘Nonpareil,’ which most widely almond cultivar. Thus far, genomic resources for this species been limited, a whole-genome assembly ‘Nonpareil’ not currently available despite its economic importance use breeding worldwide. We generated 571X coverage genome sequence using Illumina, PacBio, optical mapping technologies.

The role main genes involved ripening process these species has been extensively studied, however there need to expand our molecular knowledge at epigenetic level. To achieve this, postharvest monitoring 'Goldrich' apricots 'Santa Rosa' plums after 1-MCP (ethylene inhibitor) Ethrel precursor) treatments was carried out delve deep into level using Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS). Results showed over 12,000 9,000 with differentially methylated regions (DMRs) cultivars respectively. 1-MCP-treated apricot exhibited more hypomethylated regions, suggesting lower methylation levels compared treatment. While starch sucrose metabolism greatest number partially genes, other pathways showcased significant differences. Thus, 4-coumarate-CoA ligase phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, DELLA protein hormone signal transduction, GDP-L-fucose synthase amino sugar metabolism, D-lactate dehydratase pyruvate hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase 'Goldrich', as well homocysteine S-methyltransferase cysteine methionine 1-phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase inositol phosphate pectinesterase pentose glucuronate interconversions, malate dehydrogenase carbon photosystem I subunit VI photosynthesis, aquaporin-4 membrane transporter inverse gene expression-methylation patterns.
