Abstract Background Persimmon ( Diospyros kaki Thunb.) has various labile sex types, and studying its differentiation can improve breeding efficiency. However, studies on sexual regulation patterns in persimmon have focused mainly monoecy dioecy, whereas little research been published andromonoecy. In order to reveal the mechanism of andromonoecious persimmon, we performed histological cytological observations, evaluated OGI MeGI expression conducted phytohormones assays mRNA small RNA...

Persimmon (Diospyros kaki) fruit have significant variation between pollination-constant non-astringent (PCNA) and astringent (PCA) persimmons. The astringency type affects not only the soluble tannin concentration but also accumulation of individual sugars. Thus, we comprehensively investigate gene expression metabolite profiles sugars to resolve formation flavor differences in PCNA PCA persimmon fruit. results showed that sugar, starch content, sucrose synthase, invertase were...

Dioecy system is an important strategy for maintaining genetic diversity. The transcription factor MeGI, contributes to dioecy by promoting gynoecium development in Diospyros lotus and D. kaki. However, the function of MeGI oleifera has not been identified. In this study, we confirmed that cloned from oleifera, repressed androecium Arabidopsis thaliana. Subsequently, chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq), DNA affinity purification-sequencing (DAP-seq), RNA-seq were used uncover...

Most varieties of persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) are gynoecious, while just a few either monoecious, androgynomonoecious, or androecious. Persimmon flowers initially contain the original androecium and gynoecium followed by arrest pistil stamen primordia before maturity. Abortion inappropriate primordium in may be related to programmed cell death (PCD). To test this hypothesis, hematoxylin eosin (H&E) staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling...

Abstract Deastringency treatment with CO 2 is an effective and convenient method for improving the marketability of persimmon fruit. However, main cultivars in China turn brown very quickly following exposure to a high-CO atmosphere, causing significant economic loss. mechanisms browning under remain largely unknown. In this study, we evaluated components enzymes related fruit browning. The results revealed that astringency was alleviated by simultaneous reduction soluble tannin content...

Abstract PA-enhanced content causes astringency in persimmon fruit. PCNA persimmons can lose their naturally and they become edible when still on the tree, which allows for conserves of physical financial resources. C-PCNA originates China. Its deastringency trait primarily depends decreased PA biosynthesis insolubilization at late stage fruit development. Although some genes transcription factors that may be involved have been reported, expression patterns these during key are reported...
