Description
Ma and co-authors present a database, published in 2026, on how fruits and vegetables ripen and age. Ripening brings softening, color change, off flavors, and nutrient loss. Those changes waste food and money worldwide. Labs have produced huge data sets on the process, from genes to proteins to chemicals. But the data sit scattered across many archives and files. The team gathered them into one cross-species resource.
The database lets users search ripening data across many fruits and vegetables at once. It joins several data types for each species, so users can trace a trait from gene to chemistry. Growers and scientists can compare how the same pathway behaves in different crops. The authors say a shared store of this kind speeds up postharvest research. It may help breed or handle produce that keeps its quality longer.
