Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Seventeen LsPPO family members were identified in lettuce.
- Observation LsPPO proteins ranged from 146 to 667 amino acids and showed G/C bias.
- Observation Most PPO family members localized to chloroplasts.
- Observation PPO motif structures were highly conserved.
- Observation PPO family phylogeny revealed four groups.
- Observation Only LsPPO2 had an intron; the other genes lacked introns.
- Intervention effect Stem browning deepened over time after mechanical injury.
- Intervention effect PPO activity increased after mechanical injury.
- Intervention effect Most PPO members were significantly upregulated after fresh-cut processing.
- Association Expression of LsPPO3, LsPPO4 and LsPPO12 correlated positively with browning and PPO activity.
- Intervention effect LsPPO4 had the highest transcriptional abundance and wound-induced upregulation.
- Mechanism Authors inferred a major role for LsPPO4 in lettuce stem browning.
