Özet

Fruits of the family, Rosaceae (Apple, cherry, Peach, strawberry, rose, raspberry) are rich source of phenolic and antioxidant compounds having anticancer properties. The present chapter discusses the detail information about anticancer compounds of strawberry, raspberry, peach, apple, cherry and rose and also the genes responsible for the biosynthesis, accumulation and transport of anticancer compounds during growth and maturation of fruits. The transcriptome expression was performed to find putative genes responsible for anticancer compounds during the biosynthesis and transporter genes. It is revealed form the promoter analysis that cis-acting element is responsible for the regulation of anticancer compounds. Thus, CRISPR/Cas9 enhanced the biosynthesis of anticancer compounds during fruit development and maturation stages. CRISPR/Cas9 will be used for the silencing of genes which putatively inhibit the formation of anti-cancer compounds and also up-regulate biosynthesis and transporter genes mediated by CRISPR/Cas9to enhance their accumulation in these fruits. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2018.
