Hydrogen sulfide alleviates chilling injury by modulating respiration and energy metabolisms in cold-stored peach fruit

Li Wang et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effect of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) treatment on the respiration and energy metabolisms of refrigerated peach fruit and its relationship to chilling injury (CI). The results showed that H2S treatment reduced the activities of enzymes and the contents of metabolites in the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) and tricarboxylic acid (TCA)-cycle, resulting in a lower respiration rate. In contrast, H2S treatment increased the activities of enzymes and the contents of metabolites in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), leading to enhanced energy supply and alleviation of CI.

Plant Growth, Yield, and Fruit Size Improvements in 'Alicia' Papaya Multiplied by Grafting

Irene Salinas et al.

Summary: Papaya is a fruit crop that is still propagated by seeds, but efficient vegetative propagation methods are urgently needed due to its trioecious condition and heterozygosity. This experiment compared the performance of 'Alicia' papaya plantlets originated from seeds, grafting, and micropropagation. The results showed that grafted papayas had higher productivity than seedlings and micropropagated papayas. Grafted papayas had higher root density, dry weight, and production of good quality flowers. On the other hand, micropropagated papayas had lower fruit yield and poorer fruit quality despite blooming earlier. The study suggests that micropropagation is not economically favorable unless elite genotypes are used, while grafting deserves further research for papaya cultivation.

Exogenous nitric oxide inhibits the respiratory metabolism of postharvest wax apple fruit and its role in the delayed cottony softening

Yi-xiang Zhang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of NO fumigation on the respiratory metabolism and cottony softening of postharvest wax apple fruit. The results showed that NO treatment reduced the respiration rate of the fruit and delayed cottony softening. It also affected the activities of various enzymes involved in fruit metabolism and altered the levels of metabolites, suggesting a modulation of the respiratory pathways. These findings highlight the significance of NO treatment in suppressing fruit senescence and extending shelf life.

Abnormal behavior of chilling injury in postharvest papaya fruit is associated with sugar metabolism

Yi Zhu et al.

Summary: This study investigated the difference in chilling injury severity and sugar metabolism in papaya fruits stored at 1℃ and 6℃. The results showed that papaya fruits stored at 1℃ had lower chilling injury index and higher glucose, fructose, and sucrose content compared to fruits stored at 6℃. In addition, enzymes related to sucrose metabolism were more active at 1℃, while acid invertase activity was lower. Gene expression analysis also revealed upregulation of CpSPS and downregulation of CpAI at 1℃. These results suggest that the higher chilling tolerance in papaya fruits stored at 1℃ is due to increased accumulation of sucrose and reducing sugars through advantageous sugar metabolism.

Epibrassinolide enhanced chilling tolerance of postharvest banana fruit by regulating energy status and pyridine nucleotide homeostasis

Dong Li et al.

Summary: Exogenous epibrassinolide can regulate the chilling tolerance of banana fruit by maintaining total chlorophyll and reducing browning index, electrolyte leakage, and MDA. This study also found that epibrassinolide can increase fruit's energy charge and alleviate chilling injury by inhibiting H2O2 accumulation and O-2(.)- production.

Integrative role of plant mitochondria facing oxidative stress: The case of ozone

Anthony Gandin et al.

Summary: Ozone as a secondary air pollutant can cause oxidative stress in plants by producing ROS, which have dual roles as signaling molecules and inducers of oxidative damage. Mitochondria play a crucial role in coping with ozone-induced ROS production and the mitochondrial fate involves three steps including initial responses, detoxifying processes, and accelerated senescence leading to programmed cell death.

Mitochondrial citrate synthase plays important roles in anthocyanin synthesis in petunia

Huina Zhao et al.

Summary: In petunia, the mitochondrial citrate synthase (PhmCS) plays a crucial role in anthocyanin synthesis and the development of leaves and flowers. The citrate involved in anthocyanin synthesis mainly derives from mitochondria rather than microbodies in petunia. The other isoforms of citrate synthase (CSY1 and CSY2) do not seem to have a significant impact on petunia phenotype.
