Abstract BACKGROUND: Salicylic acid (SA) is recognised as an endogenous signal, mediating in plant defense and against pathogens. It has been reported that SA treatment can reduce decay extend storage life of various fruit, such bananas, peaches apples. RESULTS: Physiological biochemical responses harvested sugar apple fruit ( Annona squamosa L.) to at 0.4, 0.8 1.2 mmol L −1 were investigated during post‐harvest storage. Results indicated treatments lowered respiration, increased activities...
Pericarp browning and aril decay of litchi fruits shorten post-harvest storage thus reduce market value. Effects chitosan coating ascorbic acid (AsA) on were investigated in this paper. Based the fact that AsA increases anti-oxidation capacity inhibits dehydration microbial attack, novel strategies combining with treatment developed to improve storability. By treating harvest 40 mmol/l 1.0% (w/v) solution, parameters index relative leakage rate activities polyphenol oxidase (PPO) peroxidase...
SummaryPineapple (Ananas comosus L. 'Comte de Paris') fruit at commercial maturity (180 per treatment, three replicates) were immersed in 0, 1.0, 3.0, or 5.0 mM salicylic acid (SA) for 15 min, then stored 10ºC and 90% relative humidity (RH) 20 d. After d cold storage, they moved to 20ºC 2 simulate shelf-life. Physiological biochemical responses studied. The results showed that the 3.0 SA treatments lowered internal browning (IB) index, while treatment decreased soluble solids content (SSC),...
Banana plants derived from a tissue culture process possess high rate of random variations that were widely used as popular cultivars due to the new desired traits. In this study, two near-isogenic lines, one susceptible (parental Williams-8818) and other resistant (somaclonal variation progeny Williams-8818-1 Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Cubense (Foc4), inoculated with race 4 F. (Fox). Production O2 • , H2O2 MDA, well changes in enzyme activities, transcript levels SOD CAT root extracts...
To explore adaptation mechanism of alfalfa to cold and heat stresses, status sucrose metabolism relative water content (RWC) in leaves under low high temperature treatments were studied. Seedlings (35 day old) transferred chambers for treatments. First group was subjected 5°C as (LT) stress, second at 33°C (HT) stress third 25°C the control (CK). Results indicated that, both stresses led an increase degree duration genes expression corresponding enzymes activities phosphate synthase (SPS)...
The fungi causing fruit rot were isolated from symptomatic Shengzhou nane (Prunus salicina var. taoxingli) and identified as Aspergillus niger by biological characteristics molecular analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region (rDNA-ITS) translation elongation factor-1α (TEF-1α) sequences. Optimal growth conditions for A. 30°C, pH 5.0-6.0, fructose peptone carbon nitrogen sources. effects sodium bicarbonate (SBC), natamycin (NT), combined treatments on inhibition investigated....
Abstract Pyracantha fortuneana , as a kind of wild plant resource for both medicine and food, has high nutrition health‐care value. This study was to explore the effect joint fermentation pyracantha powder glutinous rice on physicochemical functional characterization wine, aiming improve wine quality. As result, light dry fermented with P. (PRW) obtained using technology Chinese wine. Although contents alcohol protein in PRW were lower compared (RW) without adding powder, sugar, ascorbic...
Strategies of amino acids addition coupled with H 2 O stresses were developed for glutathione (GSH) overproduction in high cell density (HCD) cultivation Candida utilis . Based on the fact that glycine shows two functions promoting cells growth as well GSH production, precursor modulations feeding at 4 mmol/l/h exponential phase and adding (glutamic acid 42 mmol/l, 40 cysteine 36 mmol/) stationary conducted. As a result, reached 114.8 g/l 45 h yield 2136 mg/l was achieved 60 h, which 12.5...
Effects of banana wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense(FOC) on soil nematode community composition were investigated in Hainan province China. The results show that 31 genera the and control regions identified. area was mainly dominated byAcrobeles, Acrobeloides, Chiloplacus Aphelenchus, while Pelodera,Protorhabditis, Ditylenchus Basiria area.Paratylenchus dominant genus both areas. abundance total nematodes, bacterivore (10 to 30 cm), plant parasites omnivores-predators,...
A 1132-base pairs (bp) polymerase-chain-reaction product of sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS) (EC 2.3.1.14) from pineapple (Ananas comosus cv. Comte de paris) fruit was cloned and nominated as Ac-SPS1. The sequence encodes a putative 377 amino acids protein containing two serine conserved features that had been found in other plant SPS genes: the presence 14-3-3 special binding domain an activated site of osmosis stress, which can by phosphorylation dephosphorylation. Neighbour-joining tree...
The effects of pH values on cell growth and glutathione (GSH) production were studied in batch cultivation of Candida utilis. According to the fact that lower value favors cells but retards GSH higher promotes while inhibits growth, a pH-shift strategy, optimized via simulating Gauss function, was developed. By applying two-stage strategy controlling at 5.0 for first 7.5 h switching 6.0 afterwards, final yield productivity reached 279 12.7 mg/l/h after 22 cultivation, increased...
