European, Chinese and Japanese pear fruits exhibit differential softening characteristics during ripening

Other claims from this paper (19)

Observation 'La France' fruit softened and developed melting texture during ripening.
Observation 'Yali' firmness and texture did not change during ripening with or without propylene.
Intervention effect Continuous propylene gradually decreased 'Nijisseiki' firmness and produced a mealy texture.
Observation 'La France' pectin and hemicellulose solubilized and depolymerized during softening.
Intervention effect Propylene caused limited pectic polysaccharide solubilization and depolymerization in 'Nijisseiki'.
Intervention effect Propylene did not cause hemicellulose solubilization or depolymerization in 'Nijisseiki'.
Observation 'Yali' hemicellulose polysaccharides depolymerized during ripening.
Observation 'Yali' pectic polysaccharides hardly changed except in the water-soluble fraction.
Observation PC-PG1 and PC-PG2 were expressed in 'La France' fruit during ripening.
Observation Only PC-PG2 was expressed in 'Nijisseiki'.
Observation Neither PC-PG1 nor PC-PG2 was expressed in 'Yali'.
Observation PC-XET1 expression was constitutive during ripening in all three pear types.
Observation PG activity by reducing sugar assay increased in all three pears during ripening.
Observation Endo-PG activity was high in 'La France'.
Observation Endo-PG activity was low in 'Nijisseiki'.
Observation Endo-PG activity was undetectable in 'Yali'.
Association Cell wall degradation correlated with decreasing pear firmness during ripening.
Mechanism Modification of pectin and hemicellulose is suggested as essential for melting texture in pears.
Mechanism Different endo-PG activity and PG gene expression may explain different pear softening behaviors.
