“…It also increases parthenocarpic fruit set in apple (Watanabe et al 2008) and extends the shelf-life of grape and blueberry (Nesmith 2002). Limited studies have been conducted to address the russet problem in 'Shine Muscat' grapes by applying different concentrations of GA 3 and CPPU to gain insight into the molecular mechanism underlying fruit russet (Wang, Li, et al 2014;Heng et al 2016;Liang et al 2016;Wang et al 2017). The present study is the first one to simultaneously explore the physiological and molecular mechanisms associated with the russet problem in grape berries.…”

Physiological (metabolite analysis) and molecular (gene expression) approaches were used to understand the mechanism underlying russet formation in response to the application of GA 3 and CPPU (Forchlorfenuron) in a Japanese table grape cultivar 'Shine Muscat'. Several different concentrations of GA 3 and GA 3 + CPPU [25 mg L −1 GA 3 (A), 25 mg L −1 GA 3 + 5 mg L −1 CPPU (B), 25 mg L −1 GA 3 + 10 mg L −1 CPPU (C), and 25 mg L −1 GA 3 + 15 mg L −1 CPPU (D)] were applied to grape berry clusters at two weeks after flowering (WAF). No russet was observed on the berries treated with the 'C' combination. Lower levels of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity was observed in the treated samples, relative to the untreated material. Reduced peroxide (POD) activity was also observed in response to different treatments, while the expression of Peroxidase 17 and Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase G1 genes mirrored lignin content. Increased activity of 4coenzyme A ligase (4CL) may contribute to decreasing the level of russet and help to improve grape berry quality.

“…[25]. It is classified as an endangered species and is listed as a key protected wild plant of Hebei Province; it has thus received much conservation attention, e.g., [26][27][28][29]. Pyrus hopeiensis can be distinguished from P. phaeocarpa from several morphological characteristics, such as its persistent calyx and spiny serrate leaf margin (vs. caducous calyx and serrate leaf margin in P. phaeocarpa).…”

Improved taxonomies and phylogenies are essential for understanding the evolution of organisms, the development of conservation plans, and the allocation of funds and resources, especially for threatened species with uncertain identities. Pears are an economically and nutritionally important fruit, and wild pear species are highly valued and protected because of their utility for the development of cultivars. Pyrus hopeiensis is an endangered species endemic to North China, which is sympatric with and difficult to distinguish from the widely distributed and morphologically similar species P. ussuriensis. To clarify its taxonomic identity, principal coordinate analysis was performed using 14 quantitative and qualitative characters from P. hopeiensis, P. ussuriensis, and P. phaeocarpa, and phylogenomic analysis was performed based on whole-genome resequencing and whole plastome data. Pyrus hopeiensis was synonymized with P. ussuriensis based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence, as well as our long-term field studies. Pyrus hopeiensis is proposed to be excluded from the list of local key protected wild plants. Given that the holotype of P. ussuriensis was not designated, a lectotype was designated in this work. Integrative evidence-based taxonomic study including museomics is suggested for organisms with uncertain identities, which will contribute to biodiversity conservation.
