Dormancy of buds is a critical developmental process that allows plants to survive extreme seasonal variations in climate. Dormancy transition in leaf buds of Japanese pear leading cultivar M-bM-^@M-^XKosuiM-bM-^@M-^Y were investigated using 10 K cDNA microarray. Leaf buds collected on October (earl...
A comprehensive analysis of the metabolome, proteome, transcriptome, DNA methylome, and small RNAome profiles of pear fruit flesh at 11 developing stages, spanning from fruitlet to ripening.
A custom oligoarray of Japanese pear (Pyrus pyrifolia) based on 9,812 independent ESTs from different tissues (fruits at various growth stages, vegetative and flower tissues) was designed and used for comprehensive investigation of gene expression before and during ripening (105 to 147 days after fu...
