“…The anthocyanin increase induced by girdling was reported in some fruits , e.g. in grapes (Basile et al, 2018) red kiwifruit (Nardozza et al, 2018) and cherries (Michailidis et al, 2020). The increase in anthocyanins was positively correlated with SSC and DM, suggesting a strictly link between anthocyanin and soluble sugar content as discussed in the next paragraphs.…”

“…Another physiological consequence due to girdling, related to the sugars increase , is the increase in anthocyanin biosynthesis in fruit tissue (Basile et al, 2018;Nardozza et al, 2018;Michailidis et al, 2020). Anthocyanins constitute one of the end-branch of phenol pathway, formed by the glycosylation (through glucosyltransferase UFGT enzyme action) of anthocyanidin with one or more sugars (Silva et al, 2016).…”

Phytohormone and Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals Endogenous Cytokinins Affect Kiwifruit Growth under Restricted Carbon Supply

et al. 2020

Following cell division, fruit growth is characterized by both expansion through increases in cell volume and biomass accumulation in cells. Fruit growth is limited by carbon starvation; however, the mechanism controlling fruit growth under restricted carbohydrate supply is poorly understood. In a previous study using red-fleshed kiwifruit, we showed that long-term carbon starvation had detrimental effects on carbohydrate, anthocyanin metabolism, and fruit growth. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the reduction in fruit growth during kiwifruit development, we integrated phytohormone profiling with transcriptomic and developmental datasets for fruit under high or low carbohydrate supplies. Phytohormone profiling of the outer pericarp tissue of kiwifruit showed a 6-fold reduction in total cytokinin concentrations in carbon-starved fruit, whilst other hormones were less affected. Principal component analysis visualised that cytokinin composition was distinct between fruit at 16 weeks after mid bloom, based on their carbohydrate supply status. Cytokinin biosynthetic genes (IPT, CYP735A) were significantly downregulated under carbon starvation, in agreement with the metabolite data. Several genes that code for expansins, proteins involved in cell wall loosening, were also downregulated under carbon starvation. In contrast to other fleshy fruits, our results suggest that cytokinins not only promote cell division, but also drive fruit cell expansion and growth in kiwifruit.
