Malate metabolism in horticultural crops: mechanistic insights and agricultural practices for quality improvement Open
Malate metabolism bridges plant evolutionary adaptation and fruit quality regulation, serving dual roles in energy metabolism (tricarboxylic acid cycle/glycolysis) and environmental stress responses (stomatal control, pH balance). In horti…

<span>MdARF2</span> ‐mediated <span>ABA</span> signaling orchestrates malate biosynthesis and transport via repression of <i>MdcyMDH</i> and <i>MdMATEL1</i> in apple Open
Summary Abscisic acid (ABA) is a crucial regulator of plant growth, while vacuolar malate accumulation is pivotal for determining fruit taste and flavor. However, the relationship between ABA signaling and malate metabolism remains poorly …

Two DNA-binding One Zinc Finger transcription factors, MdCDOF3 and MdDOF3.6, accelerate leaf senescence by activating <i>cytokinin oxidase MdCKX7</i> in response to sorbitol signaling in apple Open
Leaf senescence, an essential component of the plant life cycle, seriously affects the productivity of numerous commercial crops, with cytokinins serving as crucial regulators in delaying this process. Here, we observed that apple (Malus d…

Octacosanol preserves postharvest apple quality by delaying senescence through coordinated regulation of cuticular wax biosynthesis and antioxidant defense mechanisms Open
Apples, as respiratory climacteric fruit, undergo postharvest ripening and senescence, impacting commodity value. Cuticular wax protects against environmental stresses. Here, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed a…

A linker histone acts as a transcription factor to orchestrate malic acid accumulation in apple in response to sorbitol Open
High carbohydrate availability promotes malic acid accumulation in fleshy fruits, but the underlying mechanism is not known. Here, we show that antisense repression of ALDOSE-6-PHOSPHATE REDUCTASE in apple (Malus domestica) decreases the c…

Salt Tolerance Evaluation of Cucumber Germplasm under Sodium Chloride Stress Open
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is an important horticultural crop worldwide. Sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl−) in the surface soil are the major limiting factors in coastal areas of Shandong Province in China. Therefore, to understand the mec…

Comparative Analysis of the Effects of Internal Factors on the Floral Color of Four Chrysanthemum Cultivars of Different Colors Open
Flower color, a critical phenotypic trait of ornamental plants, is an essential indicator for flower variety classification. Many physical and internal factors that affect flower color have been widely investigated; however, the effects of…
