Patterns of enzymatic activity of cell wall-modifying enzymes during growth and...
Sousa, Isabel; Goulão, Luis F.; Santos, João; Oliveira, Cristina M.Fruit softening is thought to result from extensive cellwall modifications that occur during ripening. These modifications are the result, at least in part, of the activity of members of cell wall-modifying enzymes from the same families involved in the cell wall loosening which promote tissue extension and growth. In this work, the activities of a set of pectolytic and non-pectolytic cell wall-modifying enzyme...
