Transcriptomic and physiological comparison of Shatangju (Citrus reticulata) and its late-maturing mutant provides insights into auxin regulation of citrus fruit maturation.

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have shown that abscisic acid (ABA) and ethylene are involved in pulp maturation and peel coloration in the nonclimacteric citrus fruits. There are also signs indicating that other plant hormones may play some roles in citrus fruit ripening. In this study, we compared profiles of genome-wide gene expression and changes in hormones and peel pigments between fruits of Shatangju mandarin (Citrus...
