“…Both metabolic patterns and concentration are highly variable according to the species. In this vein, accumulation of sucrose, glucose, and fructose during ripening are especially observed in sweet fruits such as apples ( Jakopic et al, 2018 ; Williams and Benkeblia, 2018 ), litchi ( Yang Z. et al, 2013 ), melons ( Burger et al, 2000 ; Huang et al, 2017 ), peach ( Cirilli et al, 2016 ), strawberries ( Shanmugam et al, 2017 ), mango ( Cosme Silva et al, 2017 ), papaya ( Paull et al, 1999 ) and watermelons ( Liu et al, 2013 ) (Table 2 ). In general, sugar accumulation in fruit is directly controlled by increasing the activities of sucrose synthase (Suzy) and SPS ( Chen et al, 2004 ).…”
