The genes, designated MD-ACO2 (with an ORF of 990bp) and MD-ACO3 (966bp) have been compared with a previously cloned gene of apple, MD-ACO1 (with an ORF of 942bp).

Plant Cell Rep. 2008 Jul;27(7):1235-49. Epub 2008 May 1.


MA-ACS1 and MA-ACO1 are the two major ripening genes in banana and play crucial role in the regulation of ethylene production during ripening.

We showed previously that grafting transmitted silencing occurred when transgenic ACC oxidase 1 (ACO1) overexpressing tomato plants that also produced siRNAs were grafted onto transgenic stocks that already showed strong silencing.

Plant Physiol. 2010 Mar 17.


Here we show that in 'Royal Gala' apples that have the ethylene biosynthetic gene ACC OXIDASE1 (ACO1) suppressed, a cold treatment pre-conditions the apples to soften independently of added ethylene.

The decrease of ethylene production was associated with the reduction in the activity of ACO and the expression of the MA-ACO1 gene.
