“…Fruit have evolved efficient non-enzymatic and enzymatic antioxidative systems to scavenge ROS and protect against oxidative damage [40]. The antioxidant enzymes, including CAT, APX, polyphenol oxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POD), dehydroascorbate reductase, SOD, GR and GPX, are important for ROS homeostasis in fruit [14]. The non-enzymatic antioxidants include ascorbic acid (AsA), flavonoids, anthocyanins, phenolics, carotenoids, dehydroascorbic acid and glutathione (GSH) [14,41].…”

“…No previous reports are available regarding the effects of preharvest melatonin treatments on delaying fruit ripening and maintaining fruit quality attributes during storage for comparative purposes. However, postharvest dipping treatments have been reported to maintain fruit quality traits and extend shelf-life in several fruit species, such as banana, peach, pear, kiwi or strawberry, and even in pomegranate, as recently revised by Ze et al [ 53 ], although the applied dose and time dipping was different for each fruit species. These effects were attributed to a reduced accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to increases in the enzymatic activities and gene expressions of antioxidant enzymes.…”

“…Melatonin (MLT), namely N‐acetyl‐5‐methoxytryptamine, was proved to be effective to keep the postharvest quality and health properties of fresh fruit. The documents about its application on postharvest fruit concerning the shelf‐life extension and quality maintenance increased rapidly in the past decades (Yun et al., 2021 ). The delaying of postharvest MLT treatment on the senescence was reported on many fruits such as apple (Onik et al., 2020 ), citrus (Lin et al., 2019 ), grape (Wang et al., 2020 ), kiwifruit (Hu et al., 2018 ), mango (Rastegar et al., 2020 ), peach (Gao et al., 2016 ), pear (Liu et al., 2019 ), strawberry (Liu et al., 2018 ), sweet cherry (Xia et al., 2020 ), tomato (Li et al., 2019 ), and litchi fruit (Zhang et al., 2018 ).…”
