“…The PDJ treatment by Fujisawa et al (1997) might have been performed during the increase of endogenous ABA in grape berries, while in the present study with sweet cherry, PDJ was applied during the decrease of ABA. Since PDJ treatment at the maturation stage did not influence fruit maturation (the accumulation of sugar and anthocyanin) of grape berries (Fujisawa et al, 1997), the influence of PDJ application during the increase of ABA, at which time lipoxygenase activity is high (Parry and Horgan, 1991b), should be investigated in sweet cherry.…”

“…PDJ treatment failed to influence endogenous ABA concentration and anthocyanin accumulation in sweet cherry (data not presented). In grape berries, which are nonclimacteric fruit, PDJ application at veraison promoted sugar increase and anthocyanin accumulation in the fruit, although the influence on ABA was not investigated (Fujisawa et al, 1997). ABA concentration in grape berries increases dramatically after veraison, decreasing from the maturation stage until harvest (Kondo and Kawai, 1998).…”

“…The JA analog, PDJ, influences growth of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) and rice in the field, and alters sugar and tartaric acid concentration in grape berries compared to controls (Fujisawa et al, , 1997. ABA is synthesized from carotenoids through lipoxygenase action (Parry and Horgan, 1991a) and it has been reported that lipoxygenase activity increased in MeJA-treated apple fruit (Olias et al, 1992).…”

Trans-jasmonic acid (JA), cis-JA, and trans-methyl jasmonate (MeJA) were quantified in pulp and seeds of `Tsugaru' apple [Malus sylvestris (L.) Mill. var. domestica (Borkh.) Mansf.] and `Satohnishiki' sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.). Trans-JA and cis-JA showed similar changes during development in both types of fruit. JA concentration was high in the early growth stages of apple pulp development, decreased with days after full bloom (DAFB), and then increased again during maturation. There was an initial decrease in concentration of MeJA in apple pulp, followed by a general increase towards harvest. Concentrations of JA and MeJA in the pulp of sweet cherry were high during early growth stages, then decreased towards harvest. PDJ treatment at 104 DAFB (preclimacteric stage) increased endogenous abscisic acid concentration and anthocyanin concentration at 122 and 131 DAFB (maturation stages) in apple. JA concentration in apple seeds was also high in the early growth stages, then decreased, and finally peaked at harvest. MeJA concentration in apple seeds increased towards harvest. In the seeds of sweet cherry, JA and MeJA concentrations generally increased until harvest. In both types of fruit, concentrations of JA and MeJA in the seeds were higher than those of pulp. On a dry weight basis, changes in concentration in the seeds preceded those in the pulp. These results demonstrate that relatively high amounts of JA and MeJA are associated with young developing fruit. These substances may have a role in regulation of fruit growth at early growth stages, though this has not been demonstrated. Chemical name used: n-propyl dihydrojasmonate (PDJ).

“…The samples were stored at -30 ºC, then fl own to Hiroshima on dry ice for analysis at Hiroshima Prefectural University. The effect of exogenous application of jasmonates on CI was examined (2003) using PDJ, which has a stable effect on fruit setting, fruit growth, and ripening compared with the MeJA of the natural type (Fujisawa et al, 1997). In total, 240 fruit (80 fruit per tree) were harvested at 84 DAFB, as in the 2001 study, then randomly divided into two groups of 120 fruit, one treated with PDJ and the other an untreated control group.…”

Effects of low temperature and chilling injury (CI) on jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) concentrations were investigated in mangosteens (Garcinia mangostana L.). JA concentrations in the skin of fruit stored at 7 °C increased significantly compared with that of those stored at 13 °C, but JA decreased with the occurrence of visible symptoms of CI. Neither an increase in JA nor CI was detected in pulp of fruit stored at 7 °C. JA concentrations in the skin of fruit treated with spermine (Spm) and stored at 7 °C also increased, but at a lesser extent than in untreated fruit. Thus, the response of JA to low temperatures appears to be limited to chill-susceptible parts of the fruit. The decrease of JA and the onset of CI was delayed in fruit treated with Spm kept at 7 °C compared with untreated control fruit. Exogenous application of n-propyl dihydrojasmonate, which is a jasmonic acid derivative, effectively decreased CI. These results suggest that low temperature-induced JA accumulation may play a protective role against CI. The application of jasmonates may increase chill-resistance in fruit.
