Using RNA-seq, this study analysed an apple (Malus×domestica) anthocyanin-deficient yellow-skin somatic mutant 'Blondee' (BLO) and its red-skin parent 'Kidd's D-8' (KID), the original name of 'Gala', to understand molecular mechanisms underlying mutation. A total 3299 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between BLO KID at four developmental stages and/or two adjacent within KID. weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) DEGs uncovered a module 34 highly...
Red-fleshed apples are receiving increased attention because of their remarkable anthocyanin contents. To provide sufficient experimental evidence about phenolic composition and strong antioxidant capacity, three red-fleshed varieties from Xinjiang, P.R. China one the USA were evaluated. For comparison, two commercial white-fleshed also included. In samples flesh, contents phenolics (total phenolics, flavonoids, flavanols, anthocyanins) activity significantly higher for than varieties....
Although melatonin was affirmed to alleviate drought stress in various plant species, the mechanism kiwifruit remains be elucidated. In this study, transcriptomes of leaves under control (CK), DR (drought stress), and MTDR plus melatonin) treatments were evaluated. After comparisons gene expression between MTDR, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) screened. Kyoto Encyclopedia Genes Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses indicated three significant pathways, which mainly involved glutathione...
To identify suitable potassium fertilizers for grape (Vitis vinifera L.) production and study their mechanism of action, the effects four potassium-containing (complex fertilizer, nitrate, sulfate, dihydrogen phosphate) on sugar organic acid metabolism in fruits were investigated. Potassium-containing increased activity metabolism-related enzymes at all stages fruit development. During later development, total soluble solid content different fractions decreased titratable fractions. At...

Although the effects of melatonin on plant abiotic and biotic stress resistance have been explored in recent decades, accumulation endogenous plants its influence fruit quality remains unclear. In present study, levels expression profiles five synthesis genes were investigated during leaf development sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.). Melatonin was strongly accumulated young fruits leaves, then decreased steadily with maturation. Transcript PacTDC PacSNAT highly correlated content both...
Malate accumulation in the vacuole largely determines apple (Malus domestica) fruit acidity, and low acidity is strongly associated with truncation of Ma1, an ortholog ALUMINUM-ACTIVATED MALATE TRANSPORTER9 (ALMT9) Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). A mutation at base 1,455 open reading frame Ma1 leads to a premature stop codon that truncates protein by 84 amino acids its C-terminal end. Here, we report both full-length protein, naturally occurring truncated ma1, localize tonoplast; when...
Abscisic acid (ABA) is an important hormone that can regulate the heavy-metal uptake of plants. In this study, exogenous ABA was applied to lettuce (Lactuca sativa) grown under cadmium (Cd)-stress conditions, and effects on growth Cd accumulation were evaluated. The results showed treatment significantly decreased biomass increased content compared with control. shoot after spraying 1, 5 10 μmol/L ABA, root 1–20 Cd. in shoots when exposed different concentrations. lowest produced by...
In this experiment, four cadmium (Cd) hyperaccumulator species (Crassocephalum crepidioides, Galinsoga parviflora, Sigesbeckia orientalis, and Solanum nigrum) were intercropped with grape (Vitis vinifera) cuttings together in Cd-containated soil to study the effects of intercropping Cd-hyperaccumulator plants on growth Cd accumulation seedlings. Compared monoculture, S. nigrum increased biomass seedlings, but other three decreased seedling biomass. Intercropping chlorophyll a total contents...
To determine whether grafting increases cadmium (Cd) accumulation in the post-grafting generation of hyperaccumulator plants, effects on Cd characteristics generations a potential Cd-hyperaccumulator Solanum photeinocarpum were evaluated pot and field experiments. The following four combinations examined: ungrafted (UG), self-rooted involving one S. seedling (SG), two developmental stages (DG), wild potato rootstock (PG). Grafting did not induce genetic changes photeinocarpum, increased...
Carotenoids are the pigment substances of yellow-fleshed kiwifruit, and among them β-cryptoxanthin has only been detected in brighter variety 'Jinshi 1'. β-Carotene hydroxylase (BCH) catalyzes formation zeaxanthin, but its molecular characteristics functions have not fully explained. Here we isolated two β-carotene genes, AcBCH1 AcBCH2 from kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis), their relative expression levels exhibited a close correlation with content β-cryptoxanthin. catalyzed when transformed...
Cadmium (Cd) contamination of paddy soil affects safe crop production. This study aimed to evaluate the effects plant biostimulant amino acid fertilizer on phytoremediation capability an emergent accumulator Nasturtium officinale R. Br. for Cd-contaminated soils. A pot was carried out different concentrations Cd accumulation N. grown in soil. The increased biomass officinale. concentration exhibited a quadratic polynomial regression relationship with root and shoot biomass. also...
Biostimulants play an important role in promoting crop growth and development improving fruit yield, but their influence on quality horticulture plants is still unclear. In this study, four types of biostimulants, Ainuo (AN), Aigefu (AG), Weiguo (WG), Guanwu Shuang (GS) were applied to the surface ‘Yinhongli’ plum at 60 75 days after anthesis investigate effect carbohydrates biosynthesis anthocyanins, also analyze relationship between sugar anthocyanin accumulation during color change...
Flavonoids are essential nutrient compounds in kiwifruit, yet the specific regulatory mechanism governing their biosynthesis remains poorly understood. In this study, we identified an R2R3-MYB transcription factor (TF), AcMYB22, associated with flavonoid kiwifruit. Two alleles of AcMYB22 were isolated: AcMYB22-1 is exclusively present cultivar "Hongyang", while both and AcMYB22-2 its mutant "H-16", nine single nucleotide polymorphisms. Overexpression kiwifruit resulted enhanced yellow flesh...
Abstract Background Grape buds exhibit non-uniform, or delayed, break in early spring subtropical regions because the accumulation of chilling is insufficient. Hydrogen cyanamide (H 2 CN , HC) can partially replace to effectively promote bud sprouting and used widely warm winter areas. However, exact underlying mechanism grape release from endodormancy induced by HC remains elusive. Results In this study, transcriptome under vitro conditions following water treatment (control) was analyzed...
In this study, three cadmium (Cd) accumulator species (Conyza canadensis, Cardamine hirsuta, and Cerastium glomeratum) were co-cultured in Cd-contaminated soil pots to study the effects of intercropping on co-remediation. Only C. canadensis intercropped with glomeratum, hirsuta three-species increased plant biomass compared their respective monocultures. The treatments glomeratum Cd contents roots shoots whereas other decreased or had no significant impact contents. As for accumulation,...
A pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of different rootstocks on cadmium (Cd) accumulation characteristics post-grafting generations Cd-hyperaccumulator Galinsoga parviflora plants. Five treatments, ungrafted and G. seedlings grafted Kalimeris indica, Senecio scandens, Conyza canadensis, Artemisia sieversiana, were utilized. The four rootstock grafts decreased shoot biomass generation compared with ungrafted. K. indica S. scandens increased Cd concentration in shoots by 15.06%...
