Softening in tomatoes is uncoupled from ripening by silencing a pectate lyase, thereby identifying a route to engineering (or breeding) tomatoes with better shelf life and flavor.
Controlling the rate of softening to extend shelf life was a key target for researchers engineering genetically modified (GM) tomatoes in the 1990s, but only modest im...
