Different transcription factors are expressed during growth and ripening of fruits A peach EST collection representative of pre-climacteric RNA was prepared in our laboratory.A number of cDNAs coding for different transcription factors could be singled out by a computational analysis of the collection.The expression profile of the transcription factors encoding genes has been analyzed in fruits at different stages of development in order to ascertain their possible involvement in the ripening process.Expression analyses have also been made with hormone treated fruits.

Transcription factor encoding cDNAs orthologous to those obtained from the peach library have also been isolated from a strawberry cDNA library, and their possible role in the ripening process has been analyzed both in fruits at different stages of development and in hormone treated fruits.

Comparisons will be presented between results obtained by studying both a climacteric (peach) and a non-climacteric (strawberry) fruit belonging to the same Rosaceae family.
