To ascertain the role of pectin disassembly in fruit softening, chelated- (CSP) and sodium carbonate-soluble (SSP) pectins from plants with a pectate lyase, FaplC, or a polygalacturonase, FaPG1, downregulated by antisense transformation were characterized at the nanostructural level. Fruits from transgenic plants were firmer than the control, although FaPG1 suppression had a greater effect on firmness...
Cell wall disassembly during fruit ripening is the main process leading to fruit softening. In strawberry fruit (Fragaria×ananassa, Duch.), functional analysis with transgenic plants have related the loss of firm texture to the metabolism of pectins. To gain insights into the role of pectins in strawberry softening we have analyzed physicochemical features of ionic and covalently bound pectins, isolated...
