Isolation and characterization of two persimmon xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase (XTH) genes that have divergent functions in cell wall modification and fruit postharvest softening
Fruit cell wall modification is the primary factor affecting fruit softening. Xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase (XTH), a cell wall-modifying enzyme, is involved in fruit softening. In this study, two novel XTH genes (DkXTH6 and DkXTH7) were identified from persimmon fruit. Transcriptional pr...
