Generic stress response mechanisms in fruit. We are increasingly observing common mechanisms and responses of fruit to high and low temperatures and to low oxygen concentrations during postharvest treatments and storage.These generic patterns involving the increased expression of genes and production of protein and enhanced enzyme activity can be modeled to reveal a pattern of dose response and decay.

Induced temperature tolerance, 0particularly that involving tolerance to low temperature from high temperature exposure, involves similar proteins, such as heat shock proteins and those involved in oxidative metabolism, but also proteins and enzymes specific to high or low temperature.Nevertheless, the overall pattern of response is very similar.A similar generic response can be seen in elements of programmed cell death which may be common to low oxygen responses and temperature in whole fruit or fruit cells.These cross-stress generic responses will analysed and linked to our genomic approach to stress response in apple and kiwifruit.
