“…Although both SlARF2A and SlARF2B contribute to tomato fruit ripening, the SlARF2A transcript is responsive to exogenous ethylene, auxin and ABA, suggesting that SlARF2A intercorrelates auxin, ethylene and ABA signalling during fruit ripening (Breitel et al, 2016). Moreover, SlARF4 negatively regulates chlorophyll accumulation and starch biosynthesis in tomato fruit, whereas SlARF10 and SlARF6A positively regulate chlorophyll content and sugar accumulation (Sagar et al, 2013;Yuan et al, 2018Yuan et al, , 2019. In addition, ABA is also involved in ethylene signalling, with exogenous ABA application inducing the ethylene biosynthesis genes (Zhang et al, 2009).…”
