| Sumario: | Cell wall turnover and modification in its composition are key factors during stone fruit
development and patterning. Changes in cell wall disassembly and reassembly are
essential for fruit growth and ripening. Modifications in cell wall composition, resulting in
the formation of secondary cell walls, are necessary for producing the most distinctive trait
of drupes: the lignified endocarp. The contribution of primary metabolism to cell wall
synthesis has been investigated in detail, while the knowledge on the contribution of the
cell wall to primary metabolites and related processes is still fragmented. In this review,
starting from peculiarities of cell wall of drupes cells (in mesocarp and endocarp layers), we
discuss the structure and composition of cell wall, processes related to its modification
and contribution to the synthesis of primary metabolites. In particular, our attention has
been focused on the ascorbate synthesis cell wall-related and on the potential role of
cyanogenic compounds in the deposition of the secondary cell wall. |
