Soursop (Annona muricata L.) is climacteric fruit with a short ripening period and postharvest shelf life, leading to rapid softening. In this study, transcriptome analysis of soursop fruits was performed identify key gene families involved in under storage conditions (Day 0, Day 3 stored at 28 ± 2 °C, 6 15 9 °C). The showed 224,074 transcripts assembled clustering into 95, 832 unigenes, which 21, 494 had ORF. RNA-seq the highest number differentially expressed genes on °C 9291 (4772...

Plant cell wall is constituted by three main polysaccharides: cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin. The principal pectin domains comprise homogalacturonan, rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I) ramnogalacturonan II. Rhamnogalacturonan lyase (RGL) enzyme capable of catalyzing the degradation RG-I backbone a b-elimination mechanism. RGL have been studied in fungi bacteria species, however, little data available related with its function plant biology. This review tries to fill gaps on knowledge about...

Rapid softening is one of the main problems soursop (Annona muricata L.) fruits. The physicochemical parameters and gene expression response cell-wall-related genes in fruits were evaluated. temperature 15 ± 2 °C delayed composition by three days significant down-regulated cell-wall related genes. Pectin methylesterase (PME1), pectate lyase (PL22), polygalacturonase (PG), Endoglucanase (EG), expansins (EXP13 EXP7) showed a down-regulation their during ripening at 28 °C. bioinformatic...
