Functional Descriptions:
- Polygalacturonase gene family analysis identifies FcPG12 as a key player in fig (Ficus carica L.) fruit softening.
- FcPG12, a member of the tandem repeat cluster on chromosome 4, was selected for further analyses due to its sharp increment in transcript abundance during fruit softening and its response to ethephon treatment.
- Transient overexpression of FcPG12 led to decreased fig fruit firmness and increased PG enzyme activity in the tissue.
- Transient overexpression of FcERF5 upregulated FcPG12 expression, thereby increasing PG activity and fruit softening.
