malfunction | suppressing expression of PMEs in tomato fruit reduces the amount of Ca2+ bound to the cell wall, and also reduces fruit susceptibility to Blossom-end rot | Solanum lycopersicum |
physiological function | high expression of pectin methylesterases increases Ca2+ bound to the cell wall, subsequently decreasing Ca2+ available for other cellular functions and thereby increasing fruit susceptibility to Blossom-end rot | Solanum lycopersicum |
