Ethylene is known to induce cell wall degradation by acting on cell wall enzymes. Thus, the objective of this experimental study was to evaluate the effect of ethylene on weight loss in Aleatico wine grape during dehydration and whether this effect was due to cell wall enzyme activation. Moreover, the effect on polyphenol, anthocyanin content, and volatile compounds was studied. Aleatico red grapes (Vitis vinifera L, cv Aleatico) were treated with 1,000 mu L/L of ethylene in air for 48 h at 20 degrees C and high relative humidity (RH). Control grapes were untreated. After 48 h, grape clusters were placed at 45% RH, 20 degrees C, and 1 m/sec air flow (dehydration treatment) to dehydrate until reaching 40% of weight loss (wl). Pectin methylesterase (PME), polygalacturonase (PG), alpha galactosidase, and beta glucosidase were analyzed during dehydration treatment. Weight loss in ethylene-treated berries was about 6% higher than in control grapes, and PME, PG, galactosidase, and glucosidase activities had increased. During dehydration, the concentration of polyphenols and anthocyanins in ethylene-treated grape was higher than in untreated grape. Geraniol and citronellol peak areas rose slightly in ethylene-treated grapes following the pattern of beta glucosidase, but the total peak area of terpene alcohols decreased. Ethylene increased the concentration of anthocyanins and polyphenols during dehydration.
