Other claims from this paper (7)
- Method / resource A fruit ripening-specific β-Hex promoter was identified and characterized.
- Observation RIN bound β-Hex promoter fragments containing CArG elements.
- Observation SlASR1 bound β-Hex promoter fragments containing C₂₋₃(C/G)A elements.
- Observation RIN bound the SlASR1 promoter.
- Observation SlASR1 expression was suppressed in rin mutant fruit.
- Mechanism RIN positively regulates β-Hex transcription directly and through SlASR1 during fruit ripening.
- Method / resource The β-Hex fruit ripening promoter may be useful for regulating gene expression during ripening.
