  abstract = {{W}e examine the current knowledge about the abscission of fleshy fruit, in particular with regards to the development and function of the abscission zone ({AZ}). {W}hile tomato is currently the main model species to elucidate the mechanisms of fleshy fruit abscission, most studies on tomato focus on the development and function of the pedicel {AZ}, which is involved in both flower and ripe fruit abscission. {H}owever, the localization of the {AZ} within the pedicel is not the most common location of the {AZ} for fleshy fruit. {F}leshy fruit can have one or more {AZ}, which can be found in different locations within the inflorescence and fruiting structure and fulfil different functions. {I}n fact, most of the fleshy fruit species examined thus far have more than one {AZ}, which can be found at the boundary between the fruit and pedicel (often referred to as the calyx {AZ}), within the pedicel as with tomato, at the juncture of the pedicel and peduncle or at the juncture between peduncle and shoot/branch. {I}n addition, the different {AZ}s may be activated or function at different stages of development, under different environmental conditions, or have a completely different purpose, such as the abscission of fruitlets or mature fruit. {T}ogether, our current knowledge about {AZ}s suggests that while there are similarities between different {AZ}s in different locations or from different species, not all {AZ}s are created equal, which may be reflected in the underlying molecular mechanisms that control their development and function.},
