Summary: Our overall goal is to understand the role of level of endogenous ethylene in the regulation of texture and flavor development in apple fruit. Our objectives to achieve this goal are to investigate the complex relationship between sugar, acid, texture and volatile components in transgenic fruit modified to various extents in their capacity to synthesize endogenous ethylene.
