The apple bHLH transcription factor MdbHLH3 functions in determining the fruit carbohydrates and malate

Jian-Qiang Yu et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the bHLH TF MdbHLH3 modulates the accumulation of malate and carbohydrates in apple fruits, promoting carbohydrate accumulation by adjusting carbohydrate allocation from sources to sinks. By directly regulating the expression of cytosolic malate dehydrogenase MdcyMDH, MdbHLH3 coordinates carbohydrate allocation and malate accumulation in apple.

Transcription factor CsDOF regulates glutamine metabolism in tea plants (Camellia sinensis)

Jinhe Wang et al.

Summary: The study characterized a zinc finger protein CsDOF and a glutamine synthetase-encoding gene CsGS2 in tea plants, showing their crucial roles in glutamine biosynthesis and their regulation by shade. Suppressing CsDOF or CsGS2 expression led to decreased glutamine content in tea leaves. Overexpression of CsDOF or CsGS2 in Arabidopsis thaliana increased glutamine levels, with CsDOF directly binding to the promoter of CsGS2 to promote its activity.

The NAC transcription factor ClNAC68 positively regulates sugar content and seed development in watermelon by repressing ClINV and ClGH3.6

Jinfang Wang et al.

Summary: NAC transcription factor ClNAC68 plays a crucial role in fruit ripening and quality by repressing the expression of sucrose metabolism related genes and the IAA signaling pathway gene. Knockout of ClNAC68 leads to decreased soluble solid content and sucrose accumulation in fruit flesh, delayed development and inhibited germination in seeds, and reduced IAA content. These findings provide new insights into how NAC transcription factors affect fruit quality and seed development.

StRAP2.3, an ERF-VII transcription factor, directly activates StInvInh2 to enhance cold-induced sweetening resistance in potato

Weiling Shi et al.

Summary: The ERF-VII transcription factor StRAP2.3 has been identified as directly regulating StInvInh2 to positively modulate cold-induced sweetening (CIS) resistance. StRAP2.3 enhances CIS resistance by promoting the expression of StInvInh2 in potato tubers.

Molecular basis for optimizing sugar metabolism and transport during fruit development

Tong Chen et al.

Summary: Sugars play a crucial role in fruit quality as sweetness traits and signaling molecules, modulating fruit responses to environmental stimuli. Understanding the molecular components involved in sugar metabolism and transport is important for improving fruit quality and dissecting responses to abiotic/biotic stresses. Optimization of sugar metabolism during fruit quality maintenance is envisioned for future strategies.

Evolutionary gain of oligosaccharide hydrolysis and sugar transport enhanced carbohydrate partitioning in sweet watermelon fruits

Yi Ren et al.

Summary: The study revealed that the gene ClAGA2 controls Raf hydrolysis and sugar partitioning in watermelon fruits, with SNPs in its promoter affecting expression regulation; ClSWEET3 and ClTST2 genes participate in sugar transport and storage in fruit cells. The selection of ClAGA2, ClSWEET3, and ClTST2 during watermelon domestication led to the development of modern sweet watermelon.
