UV-C irradiation delays strawberry fruit softening and modifies the expression of genes involved in cell wall degradation

TL;DR: The effect of UV-C irradiation on strawberry fruit softening could be related to the decrease of the transcription of a set of genes involved in cell wall degradation, during the first hours after treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

UV-C treatment affects the expression and activity of defense genes in strawberry fruit (Fragaria × ananassa, Duch.)

TL;DR: The reduction in strawberry fruit decay by UV-C treatment at harvest could be related to the increase in the transcription and activity of a set of enzymes and proteins involved in the defense against pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptomic analysis reveals tomato genes whose expression is induced specifically during effector-triggered immunity and identifies the Epk1 protein kinase which is required for the host response to three bacterial effector proteins.

TL;DR: A functional genomics screen led to the discovery of Epk1, a novel predicted protein kinase required for plant defense activation upon recognition of three different bacterial effectors, commonly known as effector-triggered immunity.
