- Softening rate of the Chilean strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis) fruit reflects the expression of polygalacturonase and pectate lyase genes (2008, background): “Disassembly of the cell wall is largely responsible for the softening and textural changes (Brummell and Harpster, 2001), related to a loosening of the xyloglucan-cellulose network and pectin solubilization ( Brummell, 2006 ).”
- Ongoing Growth Challenges Fruit Skin Integrity (2017, background): “Presumably, the swelling is preceded by biochemical changes including the dissolution of the middle lamella, thereby weakening cell-to-cell adhesion and the solubilization of hemicelluloses and pectins in the cell wall (Harker and Hallett, 1994; Brummel, 2006; Saladie et al., 2007).”
- Cell wall modifications during fruit ripening: when a fruit is not the fruit (2008, background): “Depolymerisation of polyuronides is initiated at mid-softening in fruits like avocado or tomato, or during late softening in other fruits, including melon and peach (reviewed in Brummell, 2006).”
- Genetic diversity, linkage disequilibrium, and association mapping analyses of peach (Prunus persica) landraces in China (2012, background): “Such cell wall changes include the dismantling of its structure, the degradation of the polymers of which it is composed, and the loss of turgor pressure in the fruit (Brummell 2006).”
- Bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass: biochemical and molecular perspectives (2008, background): “citrus and apple fruit, where it can form up to half of the polymeric content of the cell wall [11].”
- Regulatory Mechanisms of Textural Changes in Ripening Fruits (2010, positive): “Moreover, different fruits soften at different rates and for varying degrees due to inherent composition and nature of their cell wall polysaccharides and other cell wall structural components (Tucker and Grierson, 1987; Brummell, 2006).”
- Rhamnogalacturonan-I: A Structurally Puzzling and Functionally Versatile Polysaccharide from Plant Cell Walls and Mucilages (2011, background): “81 Lines of transgenic potato with reduced arabinan or galactan have been observed to lose water more rapidly from tuber discs exposed to strain, indicating that these particular side groups enhance not only polymer solubility but also water retention.”
