DkMyb4 Is a Myb Transcription Factor Involved in Proanthocyanidin Biosynthesis in Persimmon Fruit

TL;DR: Analysis of the DNA-binding ability of DkMyb4 showed that it directly binds to the MYBCORE cis-motif in the promoters of the some PA pathway genes, which suggests that Dk myb4 acts as a regulator of PA biosynthesis in persimmon and suggests that the reduction in the Dkmyb4 expression causes the NA-type-specific down-regulation ofPA biosynthesis and resultant NA trait.
DkMyb4 Is a Myb Transcription Factor Involved in Proanthocyanidin Biosynthesis
Takashi Akagi,Ayako Ikegami,Tomoyuki Tsujimoto,Shozo Kobayashi,Akihiko Sato,Atsushi Kono,Keizo Yonemori,Ishikawa Prefectural +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, five genes encoding the Myb transcription factor were isolated from an A-type cultivar (Kuramitsu) and one of them, DkMyb4, showed an expression pattern synchronous to that of the PA pathway genes in A- and NA-type fruit flesh.

Physiological and genetic factors influencing fruit cracking
TL;DR: The best way to reduce fruit cracking at present would be a suitable orchard management that takes into account and try to minimize stress of the water, nutrition and physiological factors that contribute to fruit cracking.

Selected primary and secondary metabolites in fresh persimmon ( Diospyros kaki Thunb.): A review of analytical methods and current knowledge of fruit composition and health benefits
TL;DR: In this article, the nutritional and nutraceutical properties of persimmon, together with the health benefits of both astringent and non-astringent cultivars were also overviewed.

Inheritance of Astringency in Japanese Persimmon
TL;DR: Incrosses between PCNA and the progeny (PCA) derived from the cross of PCNA×non-PCNA yielded PCNA of approximately 15 percent, while more PVNA or PVA (pollination variant astringent) progenies were obtained between ‘Fuyu(PCNA)’ and PCA cultivars, compared to crosses between other PCNA cultivars and PC a cultivars.

Chromosome numbers of Diospyros kaki cultivars
TL;DR: The chromosome numbers in 18 cultivars and 94 open-pollinated progenies from 14 Cultivars of D. kaki were investigated by the method of enzymatic maceration or squash method, using shoot apical meristem tissue and root tips, and improved techniques made chromosomes able to be well-counted.

Genetic Analysis of Japanese Persimmon Fruit Weight
TL;DR: The expected proportion of individuals in progeny having genotypic values for fruit weight over a given selection criterion to the total individuals derived from a cross was estimated by multiple-regression analysis in Japanese persimmon.

Identification of Molecular Markers Linked to the Trait of Natural Astringency Loss of Japanese Persimmon (Diospyros kaki) Fruit
TL;DR: This study investigated amplified fragment length polymor- phism (AFLP) markers for the trait of natural astringency loss ofPCNA-type fruit using bulked segregant analysis (BSA) for efficient selection of PCNA type plants in a breeding population.
