Which of the following promotes softening of fruits?
1 Polygalacturonase
2 Colchicine
3 Polyethylene glycol
4 Cellulase
5 Brazzein
Explanation:
A Polygalacturonase (PG) is the major enzyme responsible for pectin disassembly in ripening fruit. \(\mathrm{PG}_{\mathrm{s}}\) are promotes softening of fruits. \(\mathrm{PG}_{\mathrm{s}}\) becomes abundan during ripening and has a role in cell wall degradation. \(\mathrm{PG}_{\mathrm{s}}\) is also called as pectinase. - Colchicine is a historic treatment for gout. - Polyethylene glycol is an efficient method of transforming plant cells by direct gene transfer. - Brazzein is used as a sweetener.

Pineapple (ananas) fruit develops from
1 a unilocular polycarpellary flower
2 a multipistillate syncarpous flower
3 a cluster of compactly borne flowers on a common axis
4 a multilocular monocarpellary flower
Explanation:
C The pine apple fruit is a sorosis i.e type of multiple fruits. The whole inflorescence turns into a compact fruit. In pineapple is fleshy axis, bracts, fused perianth and pericarp are edible. Pineapple fruit develops from a cluster of compactly borne flowers on a common axis. It develops from spike, spadix or catkin. In such cases, the flower remain with their succulent petals, the axis bearing them grows and become fleshy or woody.
