Profiling sugar metabolism during fruit development in a peach progeny with different fructose-to-glucose ratios.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fruit taste is largely affected by the concentration of soluble sugars and organic acids and non-negligibly by fructose concentration, which is the sweetest-tasting sugar. To date, many studies investigating the sugars in fruit have focused on a specific sugar or enzyme and often on a single variety, but only a few detailed studies addressing sugar metabolism both as a whole and dynamic system are...
