Key molecular and cellular events of table olive fruit abscission zone formation during natural maturation and after ethephon treatment

Minmin Wang, Emily A. Santos, Shaina Eagle, Alisa Chernikova, Shuxiao Zhang, Phuong Tran, Giulia Marino, Judith A. Jernstedt, Franz J. A. Niederholzer, Becky Wheeler-Dykes, Thomas Wilkop, Louise Ferguson, Georgia Drakakaki

The paper integrates physiological, transcriptomic, and cellular analyses to show that olive fruit abscission zone development involves lignification, alkalization, and cell wall remodeling, with key genes and transporters identified.
