[PMID: 38519167 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/24/2024]
Abstract
Fruits flavor deterioration is extremely likely to occur during post-harvest storage, which not only damages quality but also seriously affects its market value. This work focuses on the study of fruits deterioration odorants during storage by describing their chemical compositions (i.e., alcohols, aldehydes, acids, and sulfur-containing compounds). Besides, the specific flavor deterioration mechanisms (i.e., fermentation metabolism, lipid oxidation, and amino acid degradation) inducing by factors (temperature, oxygen, microorganisms, ethylene) are summarized. Moreover, quality control strategies to mitigate fruits flavor deterioration by physical (temperature control, hypobaric treatment, UV-C, CA) and chemical (1-MCP, MT, NO, MeJA) techniques are also proposed. This review will provide useful references for fruits flavor control technologies development.

Harnessing the metabolic modulatory and antioxidant power of 1-(3-Phenyl-Propyl) cyclopropane and melatonin in maintaining mango fruit quality and prolongation storage life. BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2023; 23:464. [PMID: 37798697 PMCID: PMC10552391 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-023-04485-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/24/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare and investigate the effects of 1-(3-phenyl-propyl) cyclopropene (PPCP) and melatonin (MT) as anti-ethylene agents on postharvest senescence, quality, chilling tolerance, and antioxidant metabolism in the mango fruit cv. "Keitt". The study involved exposing the fruit to 20 μL L- 1 PPCP or 200 μM MT, in addition to a control group of untreated fruit, before storing them at 5 ± 1 °C for 28 d. The findings revealed that the treatments with PPCP and MT were effective in reducing chilling injury and preserving fruit quality when compared to the control group. RESULTS The use of 20 μL L- 1 PPCP was an effective treatment in terms of mitigating chilling injury and preserving fruit quality for 28 d. This was attributed to the decrease in metabolic activity, specifically the respiration rate and the production of ethylene, which led to the maintenance of fruit firmness and bioactive compounds, energy metabolism, and antioxidant activity, such as ascorbic acid, total flavonoids, trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity, dehydroascorbate reductase, glutathione reductase activity, ATP, and ATPase activity. The study also found that the MT treatment at 200 μM was effective in reducing chilling injury and weight loss and improving membrane stability. Additionally, it led to a decrease in malondialdehyde content and electrolyte leakage, and the maintenance of fruit quality in terms of firmness, peel and pulp colour values for mango peel and pulp total carotenoid content, as well as phenylalanine ammonia lyase and tyrosine ammonia lyase activity. These findings indicate that PPCP and MT have the potential to be efficient treatments in maintaining mango quality and minimizing post-harvest losses. CONCLUSION The utilisation of treatments with 20 μL L- 1 of PPCP or 200 μM MT was found to effectively preserve the postharvest quality parameters, in terms of bioactive compounds, energy metabolism, and antioxidant activity, of mangoes cv. "Keitt" that were stored at 5 ± 1 °C for 28 d.

Abstract
Basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) is a popular specialty crop known for its use as a culinary herb and medicinal plant around the world. However, its profitability and availability are limited by a short postharvest shelf life due to poor handling, cold sensitivity and microbial contamination. Here, we comprehensively review the research on pre- and postharvest techniques that extend the shelf life of basil to serve as a practical tool for growers, distributors, retailers and scientists. Modifications to postharvest storage conditions, pre- and postharvest treatments, harvest time and preharvest production methods have been found to directly impact the quality of basil and its shelf life. The most effective strategies for extending the shelf life and improving the quality of basil are discussed and promising strategies that research and industry employ are identified.

Abstract
Banana (Musa spp.) fruits, as typical tropical fruits, are cold sensitive, and lower temperatures can disrupt cellular compartmentalization and lead to severe browning. How tropical fruits respond to low temperature compared to the cold response mechanisms of model plants remains unknown. Here, we systematically characterized the changes in chromatin accessibility, histone modifications, distal cis-regulatory elements, transcription factor binding, and gene expression levels in banana peels in response to low temperature. Dynamic patterns of cold-induced transcripts were generally accompanied by concordant chromatin accessibility and histone modification changes. These upregulated genes were enriched for WRKY binding sites in their promoters and/or active enhancers. Compared to banana peel at room temperature, large amounts of banana WRKYs were specifically induced by cold and mediated enhancer-promoter interactions regulating critical browning pathways, including phospholipid degradation, oxidation, and cold tolerance. This hypothesis was supported by DNA affinity purification sequencing, luciferase reporter assays, and transient expression assay. Together, our findings highlight widespread transcriptional reprogramming via WRKYs during banana peel browning at low temperature and provide an extensive resource for studying gene regulation in tropical plants in response to cold stress, as well as potential targets for improving cold tolerance and shelf life of tropical fruits.

Abstract
Inhibition of peel de-greening in postharvest bananas under high temperature storage, resulting in green ripening, causes significant deterioration in fruit quality. Herein, we reported that cold treatment accelerated chlorophyll degradation of postharvest banana fruit at 30 °C, which was associated with the upregulated expression of MaCBR (Chlorophyll b reductase) and MaSGR1 (Stay-green 1). Moreover, cold treatment increased the expression of C-repeat binding factor MaCBF1. MaCBF1 bound directly to the promoters of MaCBR and MaSGR1 and activated their expressions. More importantly, transient expression of MaCBF1 in bananas enhanced chlorophyll degradation and weakened the repression of de-greening caused by high temperature. In summary, the cold treatment promotes chlorophyll catabolism by activating MaCBF1-induced transcriptional activation of MaCBR and MaSGR1, and attenuates high temperature-caused green ripening in bananas. These results study expand the understanding of the molecular events of high temperature-inhibited chlorophyll degradation and provide a feasible strategy to alleviate green ripening of banana fruit.

Abstract
The purpose of this work was to elucidate the influence of TF (5 ± 5 °C, and 5 ± 1 °C) and CT (5 ± 0.1 °C served as an isothermal state) storage environment on the antioxidant ability and energy metabolism in post-harvest apple fruit during storage. Specifically, compared with fruit in TFs groups, the quality attributes of apples in the CT group, including firmness, fresh weight, contents of SSC, and TA were maintained at a higher level. In addition, fruit stored in the CT environment revealed a suppressed respiration rate and EL, lower MDA, O2·-, and H2O2 accumulation but increased the activities of SOD, CAT, APX, and GR. At the end of storage, the SOD, CAT, APX, and GR activities of fruit in the CT group were 38.14%,48.04%, 115.29%, and 34.85% higher than that of the TF5 group, respectively. Fruit in the CT environment also revealed higher AsA, GSH, total phenols, and total flavonoid content. In addition, fruit stored in the CT environment maintained higher ATP content, EC, and more active H+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, CCO, and SDH. At the end of storage, the SDH and CCO activities of fruit in the TF0.1 group were 1.74, and 2.59 times higher than that in the TF5 group, respectively. Taken together, we attributed the fact that a constant temperature storage environment can retard the fruit senescence to the enhancement of antioxidant capacities and maintaining of higher energy status in apple fruit.

Abstract
SUMOylation as one of the protein post-translational modifications plays crucial roles in multiple biological processes of eukaryotic organisms. Botrytis cinerea is a devastating fungal pathogen and capable of infecting plant hosts at low temperature. However, the molecular mechanisms of low-temperature adaptation are largely unknown in fungi. Combining with biochemical methods and biological analyses, we report that SUMOylation regulates pathogen survival at low temperature and oxidative DNA damage response during infection in B. cinerea. The heat shock protein (Hsp70) BcSsb and E3 ubiquitin ligase BcRad18 were identified as substrates of SUMOylation; moreover, their SUMOylation both requires a single unique SUMO-interacting motif (SIM). SUMOylated BcSsb regulates β-tubulin accumulation, thereby affecting the stability of microtubules and consequently mycelial growth at low temperature. On the contrary, SUMOylated BcRad18 modulates mono-ubiquitination of the sliding clamp protein proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), which is involved in response to oxidative DNA damage during infection. Our study uncovers the molecular mechanisms of SUMOylation-mediated low-temperature survival and oxidative DNA damage tolerance during infection in a devastating fungal pathogen, which provides novel insights into low-temperature adaptation and pathogenesis for postharvest pathogens as well as new targets for inhibitor invention in disease control.

Bioactive Compounds in Extracts from the Agro-Industrial Waste of Mango. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 28:molecules28010458.

Abstract
Mango by-products are important sources of bioactive compounds generated by agro-industrial process. During mango processing, 35-60% of the fruit is discarded, in many cases without treatment, generating environmental problems and economic losses. These wastes are constituted by peels and seeds (tegument and kernel). The aim of this review was to describe the extraction, identification, and quantification of bioactive compounds, as well as their potential applications, published in the last ten years. The main bioactive compounds in mango by-products are polyphenols and carotenoids, among others. Polyphenols are known for their high antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Carotenoids show provitamin A and antioxidant activity. Among the mango by-products, the kernel has been studied more than tegument and peels because of the proportion and composition. The kernel represents 45-85% of the seed. The main bioactive components reported for the kernel are gallic, caffeic, cinnamic, tannic, and chlorogenic acids; methyl and ethyl gallates; mangiferin, rutin, hesperidin, and gallotannins; and penta-O-galloyl-glucoside and rhamnetin-3-[6-2-butenoil-hexoside]. Meanwhile, gallic acid, ferulic acid, and catechin are reported for mango peel. Although most of the reports are at the laboratory level, they include potential applications in the fields of food, active packaging, oil and fat, and pharmaceutics. At the market level, two trends will stimulate the industrial production of bioactive compounds from mango by-products: the increasing demand for industrialized fruit products (that will increase the by-products) and the increase in the consumption of bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
Oleocellosis is a physiological disorder in citrus fruit and causes extensive economic damage due to the surface blemishes it creates. It was reported that oleocellosis always occurs during preharvest maturation and postharvest storage. In the present study, the oleocellosis incidence of Jincheng orange, Navel orange and Ponkan were found to be different during preharvest maturation, however, no differences were found during postharvest storage. Additionally, it was interesting that the outbreak period of oleocellosis incidence was 0-12 d during postharvest storage. Climate change has been reported as a factor promoting oleocellosis development. However, little information is available regarding how primary metabolites and the expression of genes involved in sugar, organic acid and free amino acid metabolism in citrus change to adjust to new environments. Metabolic profiling obtained by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC‒MS) and amino acid analysis showed that the accumulations of fructose, glucose, sucrose, maltose, mannose, citric acid, α-ketoglutarate, 2-keto-d-gluconic acid, glutamate, valine, glycine and threonine might play major roles in adaptation to changes in oleocellosis peels for three types of citrus fruit. However, decreased contents of malic acid, gluconic acid and proline were observed, possibly due to consumption in energy metabolism or reflecting a unique characteristic in this disorder. Regarding gene expression in primary metabolism pathways obtained by high-throughput mRNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) technology, upregulated genes encoding alpha-glucosidase, beta-glucosidase, beta-fructofuranosidase, alpha-amylase, beta-amylase, malate dehydrogenase, CTP synthase (glutamine hydrolysing), serine-glyoxylate transaminase, serine/glycine hydroxymethyltransferase and proline dehydrogenase were the main changes in this disorder.

Abstract
AbstractTo study the feasibility of evaluating the quality characteristics of banana based on the browning area. The texture characteristics, total soluble solids (TSS), ascorbic acid, malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations, relative conductivity, polyphenol oxidase, peroxidase, and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activities in banana peels were detected during storage. A linear model was made by principal component analysis and multiple linear regression between the banana browning area and characteristic indices. The results showed that the changes in the physiological characteristics of bananas were significantly different during different storage periods. The main factors that affected the banana browning area were relative conductivity, PAL, TSS, and MDA, indicating that lipid peroxidation, respiration, and metabolism of phenylpropanoids had significant influence on the banana browning area during storage. Thus, it is feasible to predict banana quality based on changes in browning area, which could be a rapid and non-destructive detection of banana quality during storage.

Abstract
The postharvest deterioration of mango fruits is a critical issue limiting mango storage and preservation due to its climacteric nature. This study evaluated the storage behavior of two mango cultivars and their response to exogenous melatonin (MT, 1000 μmol L−1) treatment in attenuating fruit decay and enhancing fruits’ physiological and metabolic processes and gene relative expression subjected to cold storage. MT treatment in both mango cultivars significantly delayed weight loss, firmness, respiration rate, and decay incidence. However, MT did not influence the TSS, TA, and TSS:TA ratio regardless of the cultivar. Moreover, MT inhibited the decrease in total phenol and flavonoid content and AsA content while delaying the increase in the MDA content of mango during storage in both cultivars. In addition, MT dramatically inhibited the enzyme activity of PPO. In contrast, an increase in the activities of antioxidant enzymes (SOD and APX) and PAL and their genes’ relative expression was noticed in MT-treated fruits versus control in both cultivars. However, MT treatment was cultivar dependent in most parameters under study. These results demonstrated that MT treatment could be an essential postharvest treatment in minimizing decay, maintaining fruit quality, and extending mango fruits’ postharvest shelf life by enhancing the physiological and metabolic processes during cold storage.

Abstract
The rapid precooling of yellow peaches after harvest can minimize the tissue damage and quality deterioration of yellow peaches during postharvest storage. Refrigerator precooling (RPC), cold-water precooling (CWPC), strong-wind precooling (SWPC), fluidized-ice precooling (FIPC), and vacuum precooling (VPC) were used to precool the fresh yellow peaches. The yellow peaches after different precooling treatments were stored at 4 °C for 15 days. CWPC and RPC can effectively retard the respiration and ethylene peak production, reduce the quality loss of yellow peaches during postharvest storage, maintain the color and fruit hardness of yellow peaches, inhibit browning, maintain the contents of soluble solids, titratable acids, and ascorbic acid, increase the activity contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD), inhibit the decrease in the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity, and delay the increase in the polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity. The shelf life of yellow peaches with cold-water precooling and refrigerator precooling reached 15 days, which was 6 days longer than those of the VPC- and FIPC-treated samples, and 3 days longer than that of the SWPC-treated samples. Therefore, CWPC and RPC were effective methods to prolong the storage period and maintain the quality of yellow peaches during postharvest storage.

Abstract
Flat peach fruit are cold-sensitive and vulnerable to chilling injury (CI), particularly internal browning (IB) during cold storage, which limits the consumer acceptance and market value of the fruit. Controlled atmosphere (CA) has been used to alleviate IB in fruit. However, the mechanisms of CA on IB in peach remains unknown. This study investigated the effects of CA (3-3.5% Oxygen, 3-3.5% Carbon dioxide, and 93-94% nitrogen) treatment on IB development, sugar metabolism, and energy metabolism in cold-stored (1 ± 0.5 °C) peach. The CA treatment effectively inhibited the development of IB and markedly inhibited the reduction of sugar contents and energy charge. The protein expression of the V-type proton ATPase subunit was significantly inhibited by the CA treatment, accompanied by higher adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, and energy charge than the control fruit. Notably, the expressions of the pyruvate kinase family of proteins, pyruvate decarboxylases, and sucrose synthase were induced by CA treatment that had complex protein interactions with the ATPase and the energy metabolism pathway. These results indicated that CA treatment enhanced the chilling tolerance attributed to maintaining higher levels of energy status and sugar contents by regulating the expression of key proteins involved in energy metabolism during cold storage and shelf life. Taken together, our study can provide theoretical support for the research and development of fresh-keeping and cold-chain logistics technology.

Abstract
Generally, the lower the temperature and/or the longer the duration of low temperature, the more serious chilling injury (CI) symptom appears in fruit. However, our previous study showed that the higher storage temperature (6°C) resulted in a more serious CI in papaya fruit compared to that stored at 1°C, which could be viewed as an abnormal CI behavior. This study investigated the antioxidant responses that existed in abnormal CI behavior of papaya fruit. Compared to 6°C, antioxidant enzyme activities of papaya fruit which was stored at 1°C were maintained at a higher level while the circulatory metabolism of the ascorbate-glutathione cycle (AsA-GSH) was more vigorous in papaya fruit, as indicated by higher superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), and monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) activities and higher AsA and GSH levels, which could reduce the superoxide anion (·O2 - ) production rate and the hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) content. Suppressed reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in papaya fruit at 1°C resulted in reduced membrane permeability and malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation when compared to that at 6°C, thus the development of CI was restricted during storage at 1°C. This study deepened the understanding of differential antioxidant responses during cold storage at 1°C and 6°C in papaya fruit and provided a theoretical basis for further study on the mechanism of the abnormal CI behavior in papaya fruit. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Low-temperature storage is one of the most effective methods to preserve fruit and vegetable products. While, inappropriate low temperature could induce CI, and the damage caused by CI is often more serious than estimated. Therefore, it is necessary to study the physiological and biochemical characteristics of different postharvest fruits and vegetables to prolong storage period, improve storage quality and reduce the loss of products. This study analyzed the antioxidant reaction in abnormal CI behavior of papaya, which could contribute to the further study on the mechanism of CI in papaya fruit and provide theoretical basis for the development of preservation technology of papaya fruit.

Abstract
Due to geographical location and climatic factors, postharvest storage and preservation of tropical fruits and vegetables are still facing huge challenges. Ethephon (ETH) is widely used as an ethylene donor to achieve the commercial color and flavor of climacteric fruits. However, the effect of ETH on fruit coloration was affected by many factors, such as fruit species, plant hormones, and storage conditions. In this study, the main mango variety “Guifei” in Hainan, China, was used to study the effects of different concentrations of ETH on fruit ripening and coloration during storage at 25°C. Results showed that postharvest treatment with ETH (300, 500, and 900 mg·L−1) enhanced the activities of ACS and ACO, stimulated the release of endogenous ethylene, and accelerated fruit softening and color transformation. Compared with control, ETH treatment not only accelerated the breakdown of chlorophyll with higher activities of Chlase and MDCase but also induced the synthesis of carotenoid and anthocyanin with higher activities of PAL, CHI, DFR, and UFGT. Moreover, the changes in DFR and UFGT activities coincided with the increase in ETH concentration. Further, correlation analysis showed that the production of endogenous ethylene induced by ETH was significantly negatively correlated with firmness and chlorophyll content, whereas positively correlated with MDA content and anthocyanin content. This study suggests that the positive effect of ETH on “Guifei” mango color transformation is concentration-dependent within a certain concentration range. Anthocyanin is the main pigment for the red formation of “Guifei” mango, and DFR and UFGT may play critical roles in anthocyanin synthesis. ETH promoted the red coloration by promoting the release of endogenous ethylene and enhancing the activities of anthocyanin synthesis enzymes.

Abstract
Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is a kind of fruit with significant economic, ecological and health values. AP2/ERF transcription factors belong to a large group of factors mainly found in plants and play key roles in plant growth and development. However, AP2/ERF genes in pomegranate and their implication in development and postharvest preservation have been little described. In this study, 116 PgAP2/ERF genes in pomegranate were identified and renamed based on their chromosomal distributions. Phylogenetic relationship with genes from other species, structures, duplications, annotations, cis-elements in promoter sequences, and protein-protein interaction networks among PgAP2/ERF proteins were comprehensively explored. Expression analysis revealed several PgAP2/ERFs associated with the phenotypes of pomegranate seed hardness, including PgAP2/ERF5, PgAP2/ERF36, PgAP2/ERF58, and PgAP2/ERF86. Subsequent analysis indicated that many differentially expressed PgAP2/ERF genes are potentially important regulators of pomegranate fruit development. Furthermore, expression of more than one-half of PgAP2/ERFs was repressed in 'Tunisian soft seed' pomegranate fruit under low-temperature cold storage. The results showed that 1-MCP implicated in promoting postharvest preservation of 'Tunisian soft seed' pomegranate upregulated the PgAP2/ERF4, PgAP2/ERF15, PgAP2/ERF26, PgAP2/ERF30, PgAP2/ERF35 and PgAP2/ERF45 genes compared to those under low-temperature cold storage. This indicates that these genes are important candidate genes involved in pomegranate postharvest preservation. In summary, the findings of the present study provide an important basis for characterizing the PgAP2/ERF family genes and provide information on the candidate genes involved in pomegranate fruit development and postharvest preservation.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) in plants plays an important role in growth, development, and stress response. The effect of hexanal on PLD in banana fruit responding to Colletotrichum musae infection remains poorly understood. In this study, four putative PLD genes, named as MaPLD1, MaPLD2, MaPLD3, and MaPLD4 were identified from banana fruit. The four MaPLDs can be classified into three of the seven known PLD families according to sequence characterization. Their deduced amino acid sequences displayed homology of PLDs from other plant species. Furthermore, the specific expression analysis of PLD genes in banana fruit in response to infection in C. musae was studied and the response relationship between PLD family members and banana fruit under anthracnose stress was clarified. Changes in both the activity of PLD and PLC, and the connection between hexanal and phospholipases in the banana fruit C. musae infection were compared. The results showed that the incidence of disease in banana inoculated with C. musae was dramatically increased after 6 days of storage, the activation of PLD and PLC in infected anthracnose fruit before disease development, and that this activation was inhibited by hexanal treatment, which suggested that both enzymes play a protective role in banana fruit to cope with C. musae infection and the participation of hexanal in their regulation. Of the four MaPLD genes, the anthracnose had a stronger effect on MaPLD1 and MaPLD4. These data demonstrated that hexanal treatment could enhance fruit disease resistance to C. musae, and that PLD could take part in the disease defensive system of harvested banana fruit to C. musae by modulating the metabolism of cell membrane lipids, and thus suppress disease development in C. musae -inoculated banana during storage.

Abstract
Abstract
Xinjiang is the main producing area of raisins and the largest green raisins production base in China. The browning of Thompson seedless grape raisin is extremely serious during drying process, which has become the key issue in the development of Xinjiang raisin industry. Previous studies have shown that the dehydration speed has a great impact on the browning of Thompson seedless grape, but few relevant mechanisms have been studied. Here, we demonstrate the effect of dehydration speed on the lipid metabolism and its relation to the browning of the Thompson seedless grape during drying. Compared to slow dehydration treatment, the rapid dehydration treatment of the Thompson seedless grape exhibited a lower degree of browning and activities of lipoxygenase (LOX), a higher index of unsaturated fatty acids and degree of unsaturated fatty acid. Moreover, the Thompson seedless grape treated with rapid dehydration resulted in a lower rate of superoxide anion production, hydrogen peroxide content, membrane permeability, and malondialdehyde content. These findings demonstrate that rapid dehydration inhibiting the browning of Thompson seedless grapes might be due to the inhibiting activities of LOX and the lower accumulation of reactive oxygen species. These activities can inhibit lipid peroxidation and slow the decomposition of unsaturated fatty acid in the membrane in Thompson seedless grapes, protecting the cellular membrane structural integrity which may result in less contact of polyphenol oxidase with phenolic substrates and less enzymatic browning during drying. The results provide a theoretical basis for the application of rapid dehydration in drying Thompson seedless grapes.

Abstract
The proteome and its time-dependent effects reveal the importance of stress response (including expression regulation of heat-shock proteins) and fatty acid metabolism in cold adaptation and preservation of Hami melon. To better understand the molecular mechanism of how Hami melons respond to low-temperature stress, this study investigated the relevant physiological characteristics, catalytic antibody activity, and quantitative proteomics of Hami melon (Jiashi muskmelon) during low-temperature storage. Jiashi muskmelon was stored inside two refrigerators set at 21 °C (control group) and 3 °C, respectively, for 24 days. Low-temperature storage led to a significantly reduced decay rate, weight loss rate, and loss of relative conductivity. It also maintained fruit firmness, inhibited the production rate of malondialdehyde and H2O2, and induced over-expression of antioxidant enzyme and ATPase. A total of 1064 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified during low-temperature storage. Stimulation response was the main process in response to low-temperature. To further verify the proteome data, we selected four heat-shock proteins (HSP) displaying relatively high expression levels. Real-time fluorescence PCR results confirmed that HmHSP90 I, HmHSP90 II, HmHSP70, and HmsHSP were significantly up-regulated upon low-temperature induction. These proteins may protect the Hami melon from physiological and cellular damage due to the low-temperature stress by acting alone or synergistically. Additionally, the main enrichment term of the fatty acid metabolism-related DEPs was fatty acid beta oxidation at 21 °C in contrast to fatty acid biosynthesis processes at 3 °C. It is speculated that Hami melon enhances low-temperature adaptability by slowing down the oxidative degradation of fatty acids and synthesizing new fatty acids at low temperatures. This study provides new insights into the mechanism of low-temperature adaptation and preservation in post-harvest Hami melon during cold storage.

An Exogenous Pre-Storage Melatonin Alleviates Chilling Injury in Some Mango Fruit Cultivars, by Acting on the Enzymatic and Non-Enzymatic Antioxidant System. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11020384. [PMID: 35204267 PMCID: PMC8869158 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11020384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2022] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Melatonin (MT) treatment (100 µM, 2 h) was applied to four mango fruit cultivars (‘Langra’, ‘Chaunsa’, ‘Dashehari’, and ‘Gulab Jamun’), before being stored at 5 ± 1 °C for 28 d, in order to alleviate chilling injury (CI). Maximum CI reduction was observed in ‘Langra’ mangoes, and minimum in ‘Gulab Jamun’ mangoes. This positive effect on quality preservation was associated with an increased concentration of endogenous MT, which prevented the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (H2O2 and O2·−) and stimulated non-enzymatic antioxidants (total phenolic compounds and total flavonoids), possibly due to higher activity of phenylalanine ammonia lyase and tyrosine ammonia lyase. Increased antioxidant activity was also documented in MT-treated ‘Langra’ mangoes, according to four different assays (DPPH, TEAC, FRAP, and CUPRAC) and higher activity of six antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and dehydroascorbate reductase). In contrast, ‘Gulab Jamun’ mangoes showed minimal or no positive effects on the aforementioned variables in response to the exogenous MT application. ‘Chaunsa’ and ‘Dashehari’ mangoes had some intermediate effects on their antioxidant system (enzymatic and non-enzymatic) and alleviation of CI, when treated with exogenous MT. We conclude that exogenous MT exerts a cultivar-dependent stimulating effect on the antioxidant system of mangoes, which results in an increase in the fruits’ resistance to low temperature.

Zhu Y, Huang Q, Pan Y, Zhang Z, Yuan R, Nie Y. Abnormal behavior of chilling injury in postharvest papaya fruit is associated with sugar metabolism. J Food Sci 2022; 87:919-928. [PMID: 35150140 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Revised: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
In the most chilling-sensitive fruits and vegetables, usually, the lower the storage temperature, the more serious the symptoms of chilling injury (CI). As one of the special cases, papaya fruits at 1℃ show slighter CI symptoms than those at higher storage temperature. Such abnormal CI phenomenon has not received enough attention and its mechanism is not clear. The present study investigated the difference of CI severity and sugar metabolism in papaya fruits when stored between 1℃ and 6℃. The results showed that CI index in papaya fruits preserved at 1°C was markedly lower than that in fruit at 6°C, which was accompanied by higher content of glucose, fructose, and sucrose. In addition, compared to 6°C, 1°C promoted higher activities of sucrose synthase, sucrose-phosphate synthase, and neutral invertase, but lowered acid invertase activity. RT-qPCR analysis showed that 1°C upregulated the CpSPS expression and downregulated the CpAI expression when compared to 6°C. The present results indicate that higher chilling tolerance in papaya fruit at 1°C could be attributed to more accumulation of sucrose and reducing sugars in relation to more advantageous sugar metabolism. These results provided a basis for explaining the abnormal behavior of papaya fruits in response to varying low temperatures. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: For most chilling-sensitive fruits and vegetables, in the range of temperatures that induce chilling injury (CI), the lower storage temperature may lead to more severe CI. However, as one of the special cases, papaya fruits at 1℃ show slighter CI symptoms than those at higher storage temperature. The reason for this abnormal CI symptom in papaya fruits is that 1°C storage can regulated enzyme activities and changes in gene expression related to sugar metabolism, which could result in more accumulation of sucrose and slower degradation of hexose and contribute to alleviation of CI. Our results provided a basis for explaining the abnormal behavior of papaya fruit in response to varying low temperatures.

Abstract
Pesticides and fertilizers are often used to improve the yield and quality of cucumber fruit. In this study, the effect of pesticide applied with or without foliar fertilizer on the cucumber fruit metabolism was investigated. The results showed that the mixed use of pesticides and foliar fertilizer could significantly increase the contents of organic acids and the antioxidant level. When pesticide was used without foliar fertilizer, cucumber fruit up-regulated (1.3 times) shikimate-phenylpropanoid pathway and improved the antioxidant capacity to deal with the pesticide stress. However, the tricarboxylic acid cycle was up-regulated 1.1 times and the antioxidant capacity was improved to promote the pesticide dissipation when pesticide was applied with foliar fertilizer. These observations indicate that the mixed application of foliar fertilizer and pesticides can regulate related metabolites and metabolic pathways, improve the quality and antioxidant capacity of cucumber fruit, and promote the dissipation of pesticides.

A Melatonin Treatment Delays Postharvest Senescence, Maintains Quality, Reduces Chilling Injury, and Regulates Antioxidant Metabolism in Mango Fruit. J FOOD QUALITY 2022.

Abstract
The effects of an exogenous application of various concentrations and dipping duration of melatonin (MT) treatment on postharvest senescence, quality, chilling tolerance, and antioxidant metabolism of mango fruit cv. “Dashehari” were examined. Fruits were treated with three concentrations of MT (50, 100, or 150 µM), each applied for three times (60, 90, or 120 min), followed by storage at 5 ± 1°C. The MT concentration of 100 µM with a dipping duration of 120 min was efficient in reducing the chilling injury and maintaining the quality of mango fruit for 28 d. Effects of this treatment were due to its effectiveness in reducing metabolic activity, specifically, respiration rate and ethylene production, resulting in higher firmness, titratable acidity, and ascorbic acid content and lower weight loss, total soluble solids, pH, and total soluble solid : acidity ratio. Moreover, it maintained a higher concentration of total phenolics and total flavonoids, as well as antioxidant capacity (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and cupric reducing antioxidant power assays), as compared to other treatments. This was further confirmed with higher activities of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase and membrane stability (according to a lower malondialdehyde content and lipoxygenase activity). Thus, our data show that a 100 µM MT administered for 120 min appears to be the most appropriate treatment to maintain the quality of mango fruits stored at chilling temperatures.

Abstract
The mango is an important tropical fruit in the world, but it is easily perishable after harvest. In order to investigate the effect of the compound preservation technology on the physiology and quality of mangoes during transportation and storage, mangoes were treated with different packaging and preservation methods. All mangoes were subjected to simulated transportation by a vibration table for 24 h (180 r/min, 13 °C), and stored at 13 °C. The changes in the color, physicochemical characteristics, quality, and antioxidant-related enzymes of the mangoes were measured. The results show that the shelf life of inflatable bag packing (CK) was only 24 d, while the other treatments could be 30 d. The inflatable bag packing with modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) treatment (HPM) had the lowest yellowing degree (12.5%), disease index (34.4%), and mass loss (2.95%), at 30 d. Compared with the CK, the compound treatment containing MAP prolonged the peak respiration of the mangoes by 6 d and suppressed the increase in the total soluble solids and relative conductivity. Meanwhile, the HPM could effectively maintain moisture content, firmness, titratable acid, vitamin C, and the peroxidase and superoxide dismutase content, indicating that the treatment could maintain the better quality and antioxidation ability of mangoes. In summary, the MAP compound treatment better maintained the commercial characteristics of the mangoes, followed by the edible coating compound treatment. The results provide a theoretical reference for mango cushioning packaging and postharvest storage technology.

Analysis of Light-Independent Anthocyanin Accumulation in Mango (Mangifera indica L.). HORTICULTURAE 2021.

Abstract
Light dependent anthocyanin accumulation contributes to the red pigmentation of the fruit skin of mango (Mangifera indica L.). Light-independent pigmentation has also been reported, but remains poorly characterized. In this study, the pigmentation patterns in the skin of two red mango cultivars, ‘Ruby’ and ‘Sensation’, were evaluated. Metabolomic profiling revealed that quercetin-3-O-glucoside, cyanidin-3-O-galactoside, procyanidin B1, and procyanidin B3 are the predominant flavonoid compounds in the skin of ‘Ruby’ and ‘Sensation’ fruit. Young fruit skin mainly accumulates flavonol and proanthocyanidin, while anthocyanin is mainly accumulated in the skin of mature fruit. Bagging treatment inhibited the biosynthesis of flovonol and anthocyanin, but promoted the accumulation of proanthocyanidin. Compared with ‘Sensation’, matured ‘Ruby’ fruit skin showed light red pigmentation at 120 days after full bloom (DAFB), showing a light-independent anthocyanin accumulation pattern. However, the increase of anthocyanin concentration, and the expression of key anthocyanin structural and regulatory genes MiUFGT1, MiUFGT3, and MiMYB1 in the skin of bagged ‘Ruby’ fruit versus ‘Sensation’ at 120 DAFB was very limited. There was no mutation in the crucial elements of MiMYB1 promoter between ‘Ruby’ and ‘Sensation’. We hypothesize that the light-independent anthocyanin accumulation in the skin of mature ‘Ruby’ fruit is regulated by plant hormones, and that ‘Ruby’ can be used for breeding of new more easily pigmented red mango cultivars.

Abstract
Previous study indicates that kernel of areca nut is susceptible to enzymatic browning caused by phenolic oxidation, which involves the ingression of oxygen into interior tissue. However, the reason for permeation of oxygen into the interior of areca nut and its possible influencing factors (e.g., temperatures) are little known. In the present study, we set three storage temperatures (25, 10, and 5°C) and investigated the effects on kernel browning and related physic-biochemical and tissue morphological changes. The results showed that the most severe kernel browning was observed in areca nut stored at 25°C, followed by 5°C. Comparatively, a slower browning development was found in areca nut stored at 10°C. More serious kernel browning at 25 and 5°C might be attributed to increased membrane permeability and aggravated tissue damage in view of morphological observations on pericarp, mesocarp, and kernel shell. Higher lignin content and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity were observed in mesocarp of areca nuts stored at 25 and 5°C as compared to 10°C, indicating that mesocarp lignification could facilitate the permeability of oxygen. Furthermore, the data showed that storage at 25 and 5°C induced the higher polyphenol oxidase activity while accelerating the decline in total phenolic content in areca nut kernel, which could contribute to higher occurrence of enzymatic browning reaction compared to that at 10°C. These results suggest that natural senescence at 25°C and severe chilling stress at 5°C could be influencing factors triggering the permeation of oxygen, leading to internal kernel browning in areca nut.

Abstract
Cold chain transportation is an important link in postharvest logistics of agricultural products. In current study, we developed a novel water-based phase change coolant (PCC), which showed longer effectiveness in maintaining low temperature condition compared with ice, and applied in preserving the postharvest mushrooms. The results showed that the novel PCC effectively inhibited water loss, as well as maintained quality attributes including firmness, color, phenolics, flavonoids, and thus prolonged the shelf-life of mushrooms. Low temperature condition created by the novel PCC treatment maintained high level of energy charge by activating the activities of SDH, CCO, H+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase, resulting in the delay of postharvest senescence. In addition, sufficient energy supply decreased the consumption of glutamate as carbon skeleton by inhibiting GDH activity, improved glutamate accumulation, and therefore maintained sensory properties as a result. Thus, the novel PCC might be an excellent substitute for ice in cold chain transportation of mushrooms.

Citrus fruit are sensitive to chilling injury (CI) during cold storage, a peel disorder that causes economic losses. C-repeat binding factors (CBFs) are related to cold acclimation and tolerance in different plants. To explore the role of Citrus CBFs in fruit response to cold, an in silico study was performed, revealing three genes (CBF1, CBF2, and CBF3) whose expression in CI sensitive and tolerant cultivars was followed. Major changes occurred at the early stages of cold exposure (1-5 d). Interestingly, CBF1 was the most stimulated gene in the peel of CI-tolerant cultivars (Lisbon lemon, Star Ruby grapefruit, and Navelina orange), remaining unaltered in sensitive cultivars (Meyer lemon, Marsh grapefruit, and Salustiana orange). Results suggest a positive association of CBF1 expression with cold tolerance in Citrus cultivars (except for mandarins), whereas the expression of CBF2 or CBF3 genes did not reveal a clear relationship with the susceptibility to CI. Light avoidance during fruit growth reduced postharvest CI in most sensitive cultivars, associated with a rapid and transient enhance in the expression of the three CBFs. Results suggest that CBFs-dependent pathways mediate at least part of the cold tolerance responses in sensitive Citrus, indicating that CBF1 participates in the natural tolerance to CI.

Abstract
Redox imbalance and fungal infection are major causes for quality deterioration and postharvest decay of fruit. Therefore, it is crucial to activate intrinsic antioxidative capacity and disease responses for fruit quality maintenance. Although plant-derived flavonoids have been reported for health-promoting benefits, their roles in the maintenance of fruit quality remains largely unexplored. Here, we exogenously applied luteolin, a flavonoid substance, and further examined its efficacy in maintaining fruit quality and inhibiting fungal diseases in sweet cherry. The results showed that 100 or 200 mg/L luteolin maintained better organoleptic quality and decreased disease incidence during storage. Biochemical assays revealed that luteolin activated the phenylpropanoid metabolic pathway and improved antioxidative capacity, thereby elevating total anthocyanin and flavonoid contents. Notably, luteolin inhibited mycelial growth of fungal pathogens and reduced patulin yield by Penicillium expansum. Collectively, these results suggest that luteolin is a promising alternative for maintaining better fruit quality and ameliorating disease resistance.

Abstract
Passion fruit (Passiflora edulia Sims), an important tropical and subtropical species, is classified as a respiration climacteric fruit, and its quality deteriorates rapidly after harvest. To elucidate the mechanisms involved in ripening and rapid fruit senescence, phytochemical characteristic analysis and RNA sequencing were performed in purple passion fruit with different treatments, that is, 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and preservative film (PF). Comprehensive functional annotation and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that starch and sucrose metabolism, plant hormone signal transduction, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, and carotenoid biosynthesis were involved in fruit ripening. Treatment with PF and 1-MCP significantly affected the transcription levels of passion fruit during postharvest storage. A large number of differentially expressed unigenes (DEGs) were identified as significantly enriched in starch and sucrose metabolism, plant hormone signal transduction and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis at the postharvest stage. The PF and 1-MCP treatments increased superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) gene expression levels and enzyme activities, accelerated lignin accumulation, and decreased β-galactosidase (β-Gal), polygalacturonase (PG) and cellulose activities and gene expression levels to delay cell wall degradation during fruit senescence. The RNA sequencing data for cell wall metabolism and hormone signal transduction pathway-related unigenes were verified by RT-qPCR. The results of this study indicate that the cell wall metabolism and hormone signaling pathways are closely related to passion fruit ripening. PF and 1-MCP treatment might inhibit ethylene signaling and regulate cell wall metabolism pathways to inhibit cell wall degradation. Our results demonstrate the involvement of ripening- and senescence-related networks in passion fruit ripening and may establish a foundation for future research investigating the effects of PF and 1-MCP treatment on fruit ripening.

Abstract
Pomegranate is a kind of fruit with low temperature sensitivity. Abnormal low temperature can easily lead to chilling injury, which negatively impacts the appearance of fruit, accelerates browning and deterioration, as well as seriously reduces the consumption quality and commodity value of pomegranate. This study was carried out to determine the effect of methyl jasmonate on chilling injury of pomegranate during low temperature storage. The result showed that methyl jasmonate treatment effectively maintained edible quality of pomegranate, suppressed the polyphenol oxidase activity and the development of chilling injury index, and inhibited the decline of total phenol content and the increase of malondialdehyde content and cell membrane permeability. In addition, methyl jasmonate could also enhance the disease resistance of fruit by increasing the content of soluble protein, and effectively maintain the integrity of epidermal cell structure and tissue structure. Overall, the conclusion of this paper is that methyl jasmonate can be used as an effective means to suppress chilling injury in postharvest storage of pomegranate.

Abstract
Flesh lignification is a specific chilling response that causes deterioration in the quality of stored red-fleshed loquat fruit (Eribotrya japonica) and is one aspect of wider chilling injury. APETALA2/ETHLENE RESPONSIVE FACTOR (AP2/ERF) transcription factors are important regulators of plant low-temperature responses and lignin biosynthesis. In this study, the expression and action of 27 AP2/ERF genes from the red-fleshed loquat cultivar 'Luoyangqing' were investigated in order to identify transcription factors regulating low-temperature-induced lignification. EjERF27, EjERF30, EjERF36, and EjERF39 were significantly induced by storage at 0 °C but inhibited by a low-temperature conditioning treatment (pre-storage at 5 °C for 6 days before storage at 0 °C, which reduces low-temperature-induced lignification), and their transcript levels positively correlated with flesh lignification. A dual-luciferase assay indicated that EjERF39 could transactivate the promoter of the lignin biosynthetic gene Ej4CL1, and an electrophoretic mobility shift assay confirmed that EjERF39 recognizes the DRE element in the promoter region of Ej4CL1. Furthermore, the combination of EjERF39 and the previously characterized EjMYB8 synergistically transactivated the Ej4CL1 promoter, and both transcription factors showed expression patterns correlated with lignification in postharvest treatments and red-fleshed 'Luoyangqing' and white-fleshed 'Ninghaibai' cultivars with different lignification responses. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation and luciferase complementation imaging assays confirmed direct protein-protein interaction between EjERF39 and EjMYB8. These data indicate that EjERF39 is a novel cold-responsive transcriptional activator of Ej4CL1 that forms a synergistic activator complex with EjMYB8 and contributes to loquat fruit lignification at low temperatures.

Abstract
Metabolic changes occurring in ripe or senescent fruits during postharvest storage lead to a general deterioration in quality attributes, including decreased flavor and ‘off-aroma’ compound generation. As a consequence, measures to reduce economic losses have to be taken by the fruit industry and have mostly consisted of storage at cold temperatures and the use of controlled atmospheres or ripening inhibitors. However, the biochemical pathways and molecular mechanisms underlying fruit senescence in commercial storage conditions are still poorly understood. In this sense, metabolomic platforms, enabling the profiling of key metabolites responsible for organoleptic and health-promoting traits, such as volatiles, sugars, acids, polyphenols and carotenoids, can be a powerful tool for further understanding the biochemical basis of postharvest physiology and have the potential to play a critical role in the identification of the pathways affected by fruit senescence. Here, we provide an overview of the metabolic changes during postharvest storage, with special attention to key metabolites related to fruit quality. The potential use of metabolomic approaches to yield metabolic markers useful for chemical phenotyping or even storage and marketing decisions is highlighted.

Abstract
Cold-induced sweetening (CIS) causes considerable losses to the potato processing industry wherein the selection of potato genotypes using biochemical information has found to be advantageous. Here, 1H NMR spectroscopy was performed to identify metabolic perturbations from tubers of five potato cultivars (Atlantic, Frito Lay-1533, Kufri Jyoti, Kufri Pukhraj, and PU1) differing in their CIS ability and processing characteristics at harvest and after cold storage (4 °C). Thirty-nine water-soluble metabolites were detected wherein significantly affected metabolites after cold storage were categorized into sugars, sugar alcohols, amino acids, and organic acids. Multivariate statistical analysis indicated significant differences in the metabolic profiles among the potato cultivars. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed that carbohydrates, amino acids, and organic acids are the key players in CIS. Interestingly, one of the processing cultivars, FL-1533, exhibited a unique combination of metabolites represented by low levels of glucose, fructose, and asparagine accompanied by high citrate levels. Conversely, non-processing cultivars (Kufri Pukhraj and Kufri Jyoti) showed elevated glucose, fructose, and malate levels. Our results indicate that metabolites such as glucose, fructose, sucrose, asparagine, glutamine, citrate, malate, proline, 4-aminobutyrate can be potentially utilized for the prediction, selection, and development of potato cultivars for long-term storage, nutritional, as well as processing attributes.

Abstract
Superficial scald is one of the most serious postharvest physiological disorders that can affect apples after a prolonged cold storage period. This study investigated the impact of pre- and post-harvest climatic variations on superficial scald in a susceptible apple cultivar. Fruit batches with contrasting phenotypes for superficial scald incidence were identified among several years of "Granny Smith" fruit production. The "low scald" year pre-harvest climate was characterised by a warm period followed by a sudden decrease in temperature, playing the part of an in vivo acclimation to cold storage. This was associated with many abiotic stress responsive genes which were induced in fruit peel. In particular 48 Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) and 5 Heat Shock transcription Factors (HSFs) were strongly induced at harvest when scald incidence was low. For "high scald" year, a post-harvest acclimation of 1 week was efficient in reducing scald incidence. Expression profiles of stress related genes were affected by the acclimation treatment and indicate fruit physiological adaptations to cold storage. The identified stress-responsive genes, and in particular HSPs, could be useful indicators of the fruit physiological status to predict the risk of scald occurrence as early as harvest.

Abstract
Melatonin (MLT) is a vital signaling molecule that regulates multiple physiological processes in higher plants. In the current study, the role of MLT in regulating chilling tolerance and its possible mechanisms in litchi fruit during storage at ambient temperatures after its removal from refrigeration was investigated. The results show that the application of MLT (400 μM, dipping for 20 min) to 'Baitangying' litchi fruit effectively delayed the development of chilling injury (CI) while inhibiting pericarp discoloration, as indicated by higher chromacity values (L*, a*, b*) and anthocyanin levels. MLT treatment suppressed the enhancements of the relative electrical conductivity (REC) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content, which might contribute to the maintenance of membrane integrity in litchi fruit. MLT treatment slowed the decline in cellular energy level, as evidenced by higher adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content and a higher energy charge (EC), which might be ascribed to the increased activities of enzymes associated with energy metabolism including H+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and cytochrome C oxidase (CCO). In addition, MLT treatment resulted in enhanced proline accumulation, which was likely a consequence of the increased activities of ornithine-δ-aminotransferase (OAT) and Δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (P5CS) and the suppressed activity of proline dehydrogenase (PDH). These results suggest that the enhanced chilling tolerance of litchi fruit after MLT treatment might involve the regulation of energy and proline metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Quarantine treatment enables export of mango fruits to parts of the world that enforce quarantine against fruit fly. Chilling injuries (CI) are prevalent in the mango fruits stored at temperatures lower than 12°C during cold-quarantine. So, this research examined the potentially enable of cold-shock treatment and integrated of edible coating with packing in (EPE) foam net to enhance the resistance of Naomi mango fruits during cold export. MATERIALS AND METHODS The effect of cold quarantine was studied on fruit quality of 'Naomi' mango for 2016 and 2017 seasons. In this respect, mango fruits were coated with sodium alginate at 3%, semperfreshTM at 1% and packed in (EPE) foam net to reduce CI during cold quarantine. The treated fruits were stored for 4 h at 0°C, then transferred to 20°C for 20 h (cold-shock treatment) prior to store at 2±1°C and 90-95% RH for 15 days (quarantine treatment). While, the control fruit were directly stored at 2±1°C and 90-95% RH for 15 days. Thereafter, all fruits were stored at 20±2°C for and 70-75% RH for 7 days as shelf life period to simulate a marketing period. RESULTS All applied treatments significantly reduced fruits weight loss (%), respiration rate, retard the loss of soluble solid (%) titratable acidity (%), have a good potential in maintaining firmness (lb inch-2), skin color h°, vitamin C, total phenol, flavonoids content, membrane stability index (MSI %), high rate of antioxidant capacity and retard the loss of shelf-life of fruits than the control. CONCLUSION It was concluded that edible coatings used semperfreshTM at 1% with (EPE) foam net packing have a good potential in controlling postharvest chilling injury and maintaining the fruit quality being the most effective treatment on all parameters tested. It could potentially enable the export mango fruits to all quarantine-enforcing countries.

Abstract
Chilling injury (CI) can injure harvested eggplants and lead to a reduction in postharvest quality. The present study examined the effect of low-temperature conditioning (LTC) combined with a methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment on CI by analyzing the visual appearance and physiology of eggplants stored at 4 °C. Results indicated that treatment of eggplants with LTC + MeJA effectively maintained the visual quality of eggplants, inhibited a decline in chlorophyll and total phenolics, delayed the accumulation of malondialdehyde (MDA), decreased polyphenol oxidase (PPO) gene expression and enzyme activity, and enhanced the activity of the antioxidant enzymes, catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD), as well as the expression of their corresponding genes. Collectively, the data indicate that LTC combined with MeJA effectively improves the CI tolerance of postharvest eggplant fruit stored at 4 °C, by enhancing the activity and relative gene expression of antioxidant enzymes.

Abstract
β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) is a new environmentally friendly agent to induce disease resistance by priming of defense in plants. However, molecular mechanisms underlying BABA-induced priming defense are not fully understood. Here, comprehensive analysis of priming mechanism of BABA-induced resistance was investigated based on mango-Colletotrichum gloeosporioides interaction system using iTRAQ-based proteome approach. Results showed that BABA treatments effectively inhibited the expansion of anthracnose caused by C. gleosporioides in mango fruit. Proteomic results revealed that stronger response to pathogen in BABA-primed mango fruit after C. gleosporioides inoculation might be attributed to differentially accumulated proteins involved in secondary metabolism, defense signaling and response, transcriptional regulation, protein post-translational modification, etc. Additionally, we testified the involvement of non-specific lipid-transfer protein (nsLTP) in the priming acquisition at early priming stage and memory in BABA-primed mango fruit. Meanwhile, spring effect was found in the primed mango fruit, indicated by inhibition of defense-related proteins at priming phase but stronger activation of defense response when exposure to pathogen compared with non-primed fruit. As an energy-saving strategy, BABA-induced priming might also alter sugar metabolism to provide more backbone for secondary metabolites biosynthesis. In sum, this study provided new clues to elucidate the mechanism of BABA-induced priming defense in harvested fruit.
