“…The results indicate that arginine can improve the activities of key enzymes related to the polyamine synthesis, leading to the accumulation of PAs, thus enhancing the resistance of the papaya fruit to cold stress. In addition, comparable results were found in heat-treated zucchini (Bokhary et al, 2020), methyl jasmonate-treated cherry tomato (Zhang et al, 2012), and hot water-treated peach (Wang et al, 2021).…”

Papaya is a climacteric fruit that is widely cultivated in tropical countries and regions (O'Hare & Williams, 2014). Papaya fruit are in high demand in the international market because of their tasty flavor and health care effects (Ikram et al., 2015). However, the postharvest loss of papaya is extremely serious owing to its water transpiration, vigorous respiratory metabolism, high perishability and susceptibility to pathogens during transport and storage processes (Hu et al., 2012;Shadmani et al., 2015). Papayas are highly sensitive to low temperatures below 13°C and liable to chilling injury (CI) whose symptoms include pitting, scald and shriveling of the peel, water-soaking of the pulp, and failure to ripening, leading to a serious decline in fruit quality and commercial value (Pan et al., 2017;Sevillano et al., 2009). Therefore, it is of great importance to improve the chilling tolerance of chilling-sensitive fruits during storage and transportation under low temperature conditions. Numbers of approaches for alleviating papaya CI have been examined, in which postharvest applications including methyl jasmonate (González-

“…During postharvest cold storage, zucchini fruit undergo an increase in lipid peroxidation, in ROS, and in weight loss associated with the depletion of antioxidant defence, resulting in CI (Carvajal et al, 2011). In zucchini fruit, the application of different physical and chemical treatments at harvest have been shown to strengthen resistance to CI (Bokhary et al, 2020;Carvajal et al, 2017Carvajal et al, , 2014Palma et al, 2019Palma et al, , 2015Yao et al, 2018). A major signalling molecule with diverse physiological functions in plants, NO is considered a stress-signalling molecule but can also function as an intrinsic plant-growth signal (Arasimowicz and Floryszak-Wieczorek, 2007;León and Costa-Broseta (2020); Romero-Puertas and Sandalio, 2016;Sánchez-Vicente et al, 2019), playing a critical role in both biotic and abiotic stress responses (Shi et al, 2012).…”

“…Studies have shown that the expression of lipid compounds depends on the expression of branched-chain amino acid transaminase ( 61 ). Amino-acid metabolism is also thought to be closely related to the cold-resistance mechanism of fruit ( 62 , 63 ). It is well-known that LOX, ADH , and propylene oxide cyclase are important enzymes in the fatty-acid metabolism pathway that affect the synthesis of fruit-flavor substances ( 40 ).…”

Revealing the Specific Regulations of Brassinolide on Tomato Fruit Chilling Injury by Integrated Multi-Omics

Tomato fruit is susceptible to chilling injury (CI) when stored at low temperatures, limiting its storage potential, and resulting in economic loss if inappropriate temperatures are used. Brassinolide (BR) is a plant growth regulator that is known to decrease the susceptibility of fruit to CI. In this study, transcriptome, metabolome, and proteome analysis revealed the regulation mechanism of BR treatment in alleviating tomato fruit CI. The results showed that the differentially expressed metabolites mainly included amino acids, organic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were involved in plant cold stress response (HSFA3, SHSP, and TPR), fruit redox process (POD, PAL, and LOX), related to the fruit texture (CESA, β-Gal, and PAE), plant hormone signal transduction (ACS3, ARF, and ERF,), transcription factors (TCP, bHLH, GATA). Moreover, differentially expressed proteins were associated with fruit texture (CESA, PE, PL, and CHI), plant oxidation processes (LOX, GPX, CAT, and POD), plant cold stress response (HSF, HSP20, HSP70, and HSP90B), plant hormone signal transduction (BSK1 and JAR1) and transcription factors (WRKY and MYB). Our study showed that BR alleviates CI symptoms of tomato fruit by regulating LOX in the α-linolenic acid metabolism pathway, enhancing jasmonic acid-CoA (JA-CoA) synthesis, inhibiting cell wall and membrane lipid damage. The results provided a theoretical basis for further study on the CI mechanism of tomato fruit.
