Autophagy-regulated ethylene synthesis mediates fruit ripening by affecting the accumulation of lycopene, sugars and organic acids in tomato

Autophagy is a universal cellular process in eukaryotes that plays a critical role in plant growth and stress response. However, the role of autophagy in fruit ripening is largely unknown. Here, we demonstrated that most autophagy-related genes (ATGs) were up-regulated during tomato (Solanum lycoper...
