Fruit-specific promoters play an important role in the improvement of traits, such as fruit quality through genetic engineering. In tomato, the development of fruit-specific promoters was previously reported, but less attention has been paid to the promoters involved in the fruit development stage. In this study, we characterized the gene expression patterns of tomato alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (SlAdh2) in various tissues of wild-type tomato (cv. Ailsa Craig). Our findings revealed that SlAdh2 expression levels were higher in the developing fruit than in the leaves, stems, and flowers. The ProSlAdh2 region, which is expressed at different stages of fruit development, was isolated from tomato genomic DNA. Following this, it was fused with a β-glucuronidase reporter gene (GUS) and introduced into wild-type tomato using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation to evaluate promoter activity in the various tissues of transgenic tomato. The ProSlAdh2:GUS promoter exhibited strong activity in the fruit and weak activity in the stems, but displayed undetectable activity in the leaves and flowers. Interestingly, the promoter was active from the appearance of the green fruit (1 cm in size) to the well-ripened stage in transgenic tomatoes, indicating its suitability for transgene expression during fruit development and ripening. Thus, our findings suggest that ProSlAdh2 may serve as a potential fruit-specific promoter for genetic-based improvement of tomato fruit quality.

Three highbush blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum cvs. Bluecrop, Coville, and Northland) grown in an open field and in a rain shelter were compared to evaluate the potential benefits of rain-sheltering systems on growth and fruit quality. Shrubs grown in rain shelter flowered 5-14 days earlier and were in full bloom earlier than those in the open field. All three cultivars set fruit by nearly 90% of flowers when they were grown in the open field, but was markedly reduced when they were grown in the rain shelter, to approximately 50% for 'Bluecrop' and 'Coville'. Fruit sets ratio of 'Northland' grown in the in the rain shelter was 14.5. Fruit from greenhouse-grown 'Northland' were larger, heavier, and had more seeds per berry. Soluble sugar content (SSC) of fruits varied both with the cultivars and growing conditions. SSC of fruits grown in the greenhouse was higher in 'Bluecrop' compared to that grown in the field, but this pattern was reversed in 'Northland'. Titratable acid was significantly higher in fruits from rain shelter-grown shrubs of both 'Bluecrop' and 'Northland' than in fruits from open field-grown shrubs (P < 0.05), although there was no difference in TA with respect to growing conditions for 'Coville'. The number of seed per fruit, fruit length and diameter, weight, SSC, and TA were similar in 'Coville' shrubs grown in the open field and the rain shelter. Fruit firmness of 'Bluecrop', 'Coville', and 'Northland' was higher in the rain shelter than in the open field. 'Coville' and 'Northland' fruits harvested in the open field had higher blue chroma than those harvested in the rain shelter. However, this pattern was reversed for 'Bluecrop'. On the whole, sheltering from rain affected most fruit characteristics of the three cultivars differently. Therefore, suitable blueberry cultivars for the rain shelter should be chosen by purpose.

This research was to examine the differences in post-harvest quality of melons depending on the harvest time after fruit setting. Musk melon cultivar 'K3' plants were grown in glass house conditions with a hydroponic system, and the fruits were harvested at 50, 60, and 70 days after fruit setting. The post-harvest characteristics of melons stored at 7℃ were measured over 32 days. The harvested fruits at 50, 60, 70 days after fruit setting did not differ significantly in weight, height, or size. Solid sugar content was highest in the fruits harvested at 70 days after fruit setting, but firmness, L* value, and respiration rate were highest in the fruits harvested at 50 days after fruit setting. When the harvested melons were stored at 7℃, 'K3' melons responded differently according to the harvest days after fruit setting. The major changes during storage of 'K3' melons can be summarized as follows: Firmness, respiration, moisture content, and general appearance index during storage were highest in the melons harvested at 50 days after fruit setting, but soluble solid content, fresh weight loss, and sensory evaluation were high in the melons harvested at 60 and 70 days after one. During storage at 7℃, there were no significant differences in the appearance of 'K3' melons harvested at different periods after fruit setting, but difference in soluble solid content and taste were noted. It is recommended that the fruit of 'K3' melon plants be harvested about 60 days after fruiting to provide consumers with the highest quality for taste and for storage.

'신고'와 '황금배'의 과실 특성간 관계를 파악하고 착과량 조절에 의한 과실의 특성 변화를 알아보고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. '신고'는 평균 과중이 672.0g이었으며 601-750g의 과실이 33.8%로 가장 많았으며 '황금배'는 평균 과중 477.5g이었고 401-600g의 과실이 72.5% 생산되었다. '신고'는 300g 이하부터 1kg 이상까지 넓고 고르게 분포하였으며, '황금배'는 생산되는 과중 분포가 좁았다. '신고'의 당도와 당산비는 과중, 종경 및 횡경과 정의 상관을 나타내었으나, '황금배'는 과중과 횡경에서만 당도와 낮은 상관을 나타내었다. 각 품종의 과중별 품질은 '신고'의 경우 451g 이하의 과실은 당도가 낮고 400g 이하의 과실은 경도가 낮았으며, '황금배'는 과중에 따른 품질 차이를 보이지 않았다. '신고'의 과실 크기는 과육의 크기에 영향을 받았으며 과중이 클수록 과육 부위가 차지하는 비중이 높았다. '신고'에서 약하게 적과하면 과실의 과중, 당도와 당산비가 낮았고 경도가 높았으며, '황금배'는 적과가 약한 경우 과중과 당도가 낮았다. '신고'는 모든 적과 수준에서 처리에서 과중이 클수록 당도가 높았으며 특히 '적과 약'에서는 450g 이하의 과실 또한 당도가 낮아 품질이 불량하였고, '황금배'는 모든 적과수준에서 과중에 따른 품질차이는 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 '신고'는 적과수준에 따라 과중이 작은 과실의 생산이 가능하지만 품질 감소가 불가피하여 중소과 생산은 어려울 것으로 판단되었으나, '황금배'는 품질의 하락없이 적과 수준 조절을 통한 중소과 생산이 가능할 것으로 기대되었다.
