Abstract
Correction: Unraveling the Protein Network of Tomato Fruit in Response to Necrotrophic Phytopathogenic Rhizopus nigricans
Highlights
Rhizopus nigricans Ehrenb is a major necrotrophic phytopathogenic fungus that causes serious decay on fruit during development and postharvest storage [1]
Our study provides evidence that pathogen-invasion accelerates fruit ripening process, and the Calvin cycle switches from normal metabolism to defense in response to R. nigricans
Protein Profiling of Tomato Fruit Infected by R. nigricans To acquire a comprehensive knowledge of fruit defense mechanism, we did a protein profiling for the MG fruit infected by R. nigricans
Summary
Rhizopus nigricans Ehrenb is a major necrotrophic phytopathogenic fungus that causes serious decay on fruit during development and postharvest storage [1]. Due to the markedly shorten of storage life and serious economic loss, disease caused by R. nigricans, pre- and postharvest, has become a hot topic for these years in research work. Because of the great achievement in genomics, as well as availability of various mutants, tomato fruits are deemed globally as an ideal material in many plant biological and physiological researches, including seed germination [2], fruit ripening and development [3], abiotic stresses [4] and biotic stress [5]. The analysis of plant responses to biotic stress in terms of biochemical and molecular changes provides unique information to dissect the mechanisms that plants are endowed to resist diseases. The identification of molecular resistance mechanisms becomes a central issue [6]
