Table S1 Characteristics of five varieties of peach fruit at the fully ripening stage (S3).

Table S2The peptides of protein extracted from fully ripe peach mesocarp of ‘HJ’ matched with the amino acid sequence of PpACX1and PpACX3 in the peach protein database identified by EASY-nLC 1000 nanoliter HPLC and Orbitrap Elite MS.

Table S3 Primers of PpACXs for real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).

Figure S1 The appearance of the fruit of ‘HJ’ and ‘YL’ at four ripening stages. Numbers 0 to 3 after cultivar abbreviations refer to four ripening stages (immature stage, early ripening stage, physiological ripening stage and fully ripening stage), respectively.

Figure S2 Changes in expression of PpACX genes in mesocarp of peach ‘HJ’and ‘YL’ at different ripening stages.For each figure, data shown are means ±SE (n=3). In each figure, asterisksindicate significant differences in relative expression of PpACX1 at each ripening stage compared with S0 (*P <0.05; **P <0.01; Student’s t-test). Numbers 0 to 3 after cultivar abbreviations refer to four ripening stages (immature stage, early ripening stage, physiological ripening stage and fully ripening stage), respectively.

Figure S3The primary mass spectrum (A) and secondary mass spectrum (B) of the peptide segments of protein extracted from fully ripe mesocarp of the peach cv. ‘HJ’.
