Abstract excerpt
Melting-flesh peaches produce large amounts of ethylene, resulting in rapid fruit softening at the late-ripening stage. In contrast, stony hard peaches do not soften and produce little ethylene. The indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) level in stony hard peaches is low at the late-ripening stage, resulting in low ethylene production and inhibition of fruit softening. To elucidate the mechanism of low IAA concentration in...
