The development and ripening of fruit represent a dynamic interplay of genetic programs, phytohormone signalling, and epigenetic regulation. These processes transform a seed-bearing structure into an ...

A pivotal study has provided unprecedented insights into the genetic architecture of sweet oranges, highlighting the critical role of somatic mutations in shaping fruit development. By constructing a ...

Vitamin C is a key nutritional component in fruits, yet its concentration often changes dramatically as fruits develop. New research reveals how a plant hormone signaling pathway actively suppresses ...
