TL;DR: It is proposed that the ripe fruit expression of this strawberry gene with similarity to pectate lyases could be related to cell wall pectin degradation contributing to strawberry fruit softening.

TL;DR: The function of the FaQR enzyme in the biosynthesis of HDMF as enone oxidoreductase is demonstrated and provides a foundation for the improvement of strawberry flavor and the biotechnological production ofHDMF.

TL;DR: Two genomic clones corresponding to putative pectate lyase genes (plA and plB) were isolated and characterized in strawberry and southern blot analysis has shown that while the plB gene is a single copy gene, the plA gene is probably encoded by a small multigene family.

TL;DR: This study identified a novel strawberry alcohol acyltransferase gene (FaAAT2) whose expression pattern during fruit receptacle growth and ripening is in accordance with the production of esters throughout strawberry fruit ripening.

TL;DR: Southern blot analyses suggest that, probably, a small cad gene family exists in strawberry and indicates that only the Fxacad1 gene was expressed in all the fruit ripening stages and vegetative tissues analysed.
