B-BOX proteins are zinc finger transcription factors that play important roles in plant growth, development, and abiotic stress responses. In this study, we identified 15 PavBBX genes in the genome database of sweet cherry. We systematically analyzed the gene structures, clustering characteristics, and expression patterns of these genes during fruit development and in response to light and various hormones. The PavBBX genes were divided into five subgroups. The promoter regions of the PavBBX genes contain cis-acting elements related to plant development, hormones, and stress. qRT-PCR revealed five upregulated and eight downregulated PavBBX genes during fruit development. In addition, PavBBX6, PavBBX9, and PavBBX11 were upregulated in response to light induction. We also found that ABA, BR, and GA3 contents significantly increased in response to light induction. Furthermore, the expression of several PavBBX genes was highly correlated with the expression of anthocyanin biosynthesis genes, light-responsive genes, and genes that function in multiple hormone signaling pathways. Some PavBBX genes were strongly induced by ABA, GA, and BR treatment. Notably, PavBBX6 and PavBBX9 responded to all three hormones. Taken together, BBX proteins likely play major roles in regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis in sweet cherry fruit by integrating light, ABA, GA, and BR signaling pathways.

Changes in metabolites were studied during the fruit development of two greenhouse grown peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] cultivars with low acidity (`Jalousia') or normal acidity (`Fantasia'). Both cultivars had the same sucrose concentration in fruit mesocarp at maturity. In the fruit juice, pH was higher and titratable acidity was lower for `Jalousia' than for `Fantasia' from 80 days after bloom to maturity. At four different times during fruit development, in vivo 13C NMR spectroscopy was used to measure the vacuolar pH of fruit mesocarp. At 55 days after bloom, the vacuolar pH of fruit mesocarp was not significantly different between `Jalousia' and `Fantasia', whereas the juice pH was different between cultivars. The three major organic acids in fruit mesocarp were malic, citric, and quinic acids for both cultivars. Citric acid concentrations were similar in both cultivars until ≈85 days after bloom and then became significantly higher in `Fantasia'. A significantly higher concentration in malic acid in `Fantasia' than in `Jalousia' was observed from the end of the first growth phase to maturity. At maturity, `Fantasia' fruit had two and five times more malic and citric acid, respectively, than `Jalousia' fruit. The differences observed between `Jalousia' and `Fantasia' fruit for malic and citric acid concentrations accounted for the difference in titratable acidity. The differences in acid concentration appeared during the plateau between the two rapid growth phases of the fruit, i.e., far before the onset of maturation. The three major amino acids were asparagine, glutamic acid, and proline for both cultivars. Their concentration followed similar patterns in acid and low-acid fruit.

Seasonal variation in polyamines were evaluate during growth of fruit and seed of peach (Prunus persica L. cvs. Loring and Biscoe) starting at fruit set. In both cultivars, putrescine and spermidine increase significantly while spermine increase only slightly during the early stages of development then declined at the later stages. During pit hardening, polyamines in the flesh remained unchanged but their level in the seed continued to decrease. In both cultivars, polyamine levels corresponded to changes in fruit and seed sizes. when polyamines were vacuum infiltrated into commercially mature Biscoe fruits, flesh firmness, ethylene biosynthesis, and flesh color were significantly different from untreated tissue. The relationship between polyamines, seed development, and fruit development and ripening will be examined.
