摘要：

研究了采后茉莉酸甲酯（MeJA）浸泡处理对常温贮藏期间南果梨果实线粒体能量代谢和贮藏品质的影响。结果表明，采后MeJA处理抑制了果实呼吸速率和失重率的增加，保持了较高的果肉硬度，抗坏血酸含量和可滴定酸。MeJA处理还显著提高了线粒体H⁺-ATPase、Ca²⁺-ATPase、琥珀酸脱氢酶和细胞色素C氧化酶活性，ATP和ADP含量及能荷水平。由此说明，采后MeJA处理通过调控线粒体能量代谢来保持南果梨果实常温贮藏品质。

Abstract:

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) dipping treatment on mitochondrial energy metabolism and quality parameters of Nanguo pears during room temperature storage. The results showed that MeJA treatment suppressed the respiration rate and weight loss, and maintained the flesh firmness of Nanguo pears. MeJA also effectively maintained the content of ascorbic acid and titratable acidity in the fruit. Furthermore, the activities of H⁺-ATPase, Ca²⁺-ATPase, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and cytochrome C oxidase (CCO) of the MeJA-treated fruit were significantly higher than those of the untreated fruit. The contents of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and the energy charge were also enhanced by MeJA treatment. These results suggest that postharvest MeJA treatment could maintain the quality of Nanguo pears, in part by modulating mitochondrial energy metabolism during room temperature storage.
