Functional Descriptions:

  • MaMADS2 repression in banana fruits modifies hormone synthesis and signalling pathways prior to climacteric stage.
  • The cytokinin pathway may play a previously unanticipated role via MaMADS2 in banana ripening.
  • Abscisic acid enhances MaMADS2 expression to promote ripening, but the transcription factor in turn auto inhibits ABA synthesis and signaling.
  • Together, these results demonstrate a complex interaction of plant hormones and banana fruit ripening mediated by MaMADS2.
