TL;DR: It is suggested that PPO plays a novel and fundamental role in secondary metabolism and acts as an indirect regulator of cell death in walnut.

TL;DR: This work studied host responses of citrus to infection with Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus using next-generation sequencing technologies and identified differentially regulated pathways and constructed networks that provide a deep insight into the metabolism of affected fruit.

TL;DR: Next-generation sequencing was exploited to gain deeper insight into the response to infection by Candidatus liberibacter asiaticus, especially the immune disregulation and metabolic dysfunction caused by source-sink disruption.

TL;DR: A systems-level analysis reveals details of molecular mechanisms underlying puffing disorder in Citrus fruit and suggests that gibberellin and cytokinin signaling were downregulated in symptomatic albedo tissues, suggesting that these hormones play key roles in the disorder.

TL;DR: It is shown here that even transgenic apples suppressed for ethylene biosynthesis genes can produce alpha-farnesene, which in turn can oxidize to free radicals and MHO, leading to scald development.
