“…The polyamines are normally at a low level when the fruit ripening starts. Such an evolution pattern has been reported in pumpkin 7 , apple 8,9,93 , pea 12 , cherimoya 22 , rambutan 36 , peach 38 , avocado 39,91 , mango 40 , Phaseolus vulgaris 56 , tomato 72,81 , pepper 73 , grape 75 , and pear 84 . In avocado, polyamines were at their maximal level during early fruit development, whereas they declined to 30% or less at full maturity 39 .…”

Polyamines, including putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm), are polycationic compounds of low molecular weight that are widely distributed in living organisms. They are implicated in a variety of plant processes, such as floral and fruit development. In addition, correlation between polyamines and flower gender or fertility is reported in some plant species. Since polyamines, especially Spd and Spm share a common precursor, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), with ethylene, they demonstrated competitive effects on functions in fruit development and ripening in many plants. Exogenous polyamines have been employed to regulate floral and fruit development and ripening in a lot of plants. Besides, polyamines have shown their potential for postharvest fruit management. Therefore, in this review, we focused on the involvement of polyamines in floral and fruit development along with perspectives of polyamine research.

“…Soon after full blossom, the PAs are maintained at high levels, followed by decline with fruit development as reported in pumpkin (Bezold et al 2003) and grape (Shiozaki et al 2000). Reduction in PAs level during fruit ripening is reported in tomato (Casas et al 1990).…”

Endogenous polyamine profiles in different tissues of Coffea sp., and their levels during the ontogeny of fruits

2009

Polyamines are essential compounds for growth and development in plants. An attempt has been made to find out the endogenous polyamine profiles in various parts and during the ontogeny of fruit formation of two commercially important Coffea species viz., arabica and canephora. Putrescine (Put), spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd) are the predominant polyamines during the ontogeny of fruit and their level increased with the advancement of fruit development. However, in the initial stages of flower and fruit development Spm levels were found to be decreased. Elevated levels of major polyamines Put, Spd, and Spm were observed in zygotic embryos than in somatic embryos. Along with this cadavarine (Cad) and other biogenic amines viz., tyramine (Tyr) and tryptamine (Try) were also found during the ontogeny of fruit in C. canephora. In this study the enodogenous polyamine profiles in coffee tissues and beans have been addressed.

“…Minimum fruit weight was recorded in untreated control (F 0 ) (266.88), which were on par with application of spermine (F 2 ) (290.00) and spermidine (F 1 ) (289.00). In the early stages of fruit development the polyamines are maintained at a high level, followed by decline with fruit development in mango (Malik and Singh, 2004), Grape (Shiozaki et al, 2000). The high polyamine concentrations may be related to the high growth rate at initial stages of fruit development (Fraga et al, 2004) in prunus persica or active cell division (Galston, 1983).…”
