Diospyros kaki expression of DkXTH8 is stimulated by propylene and abscisic acid during storage at room temperature up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction overexpression of DkXTH8 results in increased leaf senescence coupled with higher electrolyte leakage in Arabidopsis and faster fruit ripening and softening rates in tomato. Transgenic plants overexpressing DkXTH8 display more irregular and twisted cells due to cell wall restructuring, resulting in wider interstitial spaces with less compact cells. DkXTH8 expression causes cells to be easily destroyed, increases membrane permeability and cell peroxidation, and accelerates leaf senescence and fruit softening in transgenic plants Diospyros kaki
physiological function fruit softening is mainly associated with cell wall structural modifications, and members of the xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase (XTH) family are key enzymes involved in cleaving and rejoining xyloglucan in the cell wall. Isozyme DkXTH8, a xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase in persimmon, alters cell wall structure and promotes leaf senescence and fruit postharvest softening Diospyros kaki
