“…Recent progress in understanding the role of miRNAs in regulating fruit development and quality characteristics during ripening and senescence has been summarised by Ma et al [ 238 , 239 ]. miR172a is inhibited by MADS-RIN transcription factor, and several miRNAs have been shown to modulate the ethylene signal transduction pathway (miR1917) [ 238 ] and ethylene biosynthetic genes ACS8 (miR159) and different ACO genes (miR414, miR396b, miR397, miR1917) [ 239 ]. Recently, miR164 was found to cleave AdNAC6/7 mRNAs and inhibit their transcriptional regulatory effects on ripening-related genes in kiwifruit [ 20 ].…”

“…Several lncRNAs are reported to regulate tomato fruit development and ripening [ 254 , 255 ], although knowledge of the transcriptional regulation mechanism of lncRNAs is limited [ 256 ]. Multiple lncRNAs regulate the ethylene biosynthesis pathway by controlling the expression of different ACS and ACO targets, lncRNAZ018 targets ACS2 , while lncRNAZ113 and lncRNAZ118 target ACO2 [ 239 ]. The lncRNA2155 is involved in the regulation of tomato fruit colour, and repression of lncRNA1459 inhibited lycopene accumulation [ 239 ].…”

This article focuses on the molecular and hormonal mechanisms underlying the control of fleshy fruit ripening and quality. Recent research on tomato shows that ethylene, acting through transcription factors, is responsible for the initiation of tomato ripening. Several other hormones, including abscisic acid (ABA), jasmonic acid (JA) and brassinosteroids (BR), promote ripening by upregulating ethylene biosynthesis genes in different fruits. Changes to histone marks and DNA methylation are associated with the activation of ripening genes and are necessary for ripening initiation. Light, detected by different photoreceptors and operating through ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5(HY5), also modulates ripening. Re-evaluation of the roles of ‘master regulators’ indicates that MADS-RIN, NAC-NOR, Nor-like1 and other MADS and NAC genes, together with ethylene, promote the full expression of genes required for further ethylene synthesis and change in colour, flavour, texture and progression of ripening. Several different types of non-coding RNAs are involved in regulating expression of ripening genes, but further clarification of their diverse mechanisms of action is required. We discuss a model that integrates the main hormonal and genetic regulatory interactions governing the ripening of tomato fruit and consider variations in ripening regulatory circuits that operate in other fruits.

“…Tomato is one of the major cultivated vegetables worldwide and has emerged as the model system for the investigation of fleshy fruit. Ma et al (2020b) systematically summarized recent advances in the regulation of tomato fruit ripening by non-coding RNAs (miRNAs, siRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs). These RNAs are involved in a number of processes including ethylene biosynthesis and signal transduction, pigment accumulation, flavor and aroma compound formation, fruit softening, and their coordinated regulation on tomato fruit ripening, which provides a foundation for understanding the molecular biology of fleshy fruit ripening.…”
