Fruit ripening and senescence are finely controlled by plant hormones such as ethylene and abscisic acid (ABA) but also by calcium ions and by calcium-dependent signaling pathways. Although there are extensive data supporting an interaction between ethylene and calcium in fruit ripening, the regulatory mechanisms resulting from the interaction between ABA and calcium have not yet been fully clarified. In this article, we have reviewed the full roles of calcium and its sensors (CaM, CMLs, CDPKs, CBLs) as well as ABA and the interactions between the two signaling pathways in the regulation of stress responses and in fruit ripening. To illustrate the possible interaction between calcium sensors and ABA signaling components in the control of fruit ripening, we propose an interaction model between the calcium and ABA signaling pathways.

钙和ABA信号通路在果实成熟调控中的相互作用

果实的成熟和衰老受到植物激素（例如乙烯和脱落酸 (ABA)）以及钙离子和钙依赖性信号通路的精细控制。尽管有大量数据支持乙烯与钙在果实成熟过程中的相互作用，但ABA与钙相互作用产生的调控机制尚未完全阐明。在本文中，我们回顾了钙及其传感器（CaM、CML、CDPK、CBL）以及 ABA 的全部作用，以及两种信号通路在调节应激反应和果实成熟中的相互作用。为了说明钙传感器和 ABA 信号成分在控制果实成熟过程中可能存在的相互作用，我们提出了钙和 ABA 信号通路之间的相互作用模型。
