Abstract ETHYLENE-INSENSITIVE 3/ETHYLENE-INSENSITIVE 3-LIKEs (EIN3/EILs) are important ethylene response factors during fruit ripening. Here, we discovered that EIL2 controls carotenoid metabolism and ascorbic acid (AsA) biosynthesis in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). In contrast to the red fruits presented wild type (WT) 45 d after pollination, of CRISPR/Cas9 eil2 mutants SlEIL2 RNA interference lines (ERIs) showed yellow or orange fruits. Correlation analysis transcriptome metabolome data...

Summary Heat stress causes dysfunction of the carbon‐assimilation metabolism. As a member Calvin–Benson–Bassham (CBB) cycle, chloroplast triose phosphate isomerases (TPI) catalyse interconversion glyceraldehyde 3‐phosphate (GAP) and dihydroxyacetone (DHAP). The tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) genome contains two individual SlTPI genes, Solyc10g054870 Solyc01g111120, which encode chloroplast‐located proteins SlTPI1 SlTPI2, respectively. tpi1 tpi2 single mutants had no visible phenotypes, but...
