The development and ripening of fruit represent a dynamic interplay of genetic programs, phytohormone signalling, and epigenetic regulation. These processes transform a seed-bearing structure into an ...

Parthenocarpy—the development of fruit without fertilisation—represents a significant adaptation in horticultural crops, ensuring yield stability especially under challenging environmental conditions.

A pivotal study has provided unprecedented insights into the genetic architecture of sweet oranges, highlighting the critical role of somatic mutations in shaping fruit development. By constructing a ...

Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis), renowned for its nutritional richness and aromatic fruits, is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions. Passion fruit can not only be harvested ...
