To investigate the effect of oxalic acid treatment on storage quality and cell wall degradation of postharvest Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth, they were dipped in 10 mmol/L oxalic acid solution for 20 min, while dipped in distilled water as control, and then stored at 10 ℃ for 30 days.The indicators of firmness, weight loss rate, soluble solid content, titrable acid content, ascorbic acid content, cell wall components, and cell wall degrading enzyme activities of Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth during storage were measured periodically.Results showed that oxalic acid treatment could significantly inhibit the decrease of firmness, titrable acid and ascorbic acid content, delay the increase of weight loss rate, restrain the decrease of original pectin and cellulose content, and inhibit the increase of soluble pectin content of Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth.The activities of polygalacturonase (PG), pectinesterase (PME), α-L-Arabinofuranosidase (α-L-Af), β-glucosidase (β-Glu), β-galactosidase (β-Gal), and cellulase (Cx) were remarkably inhibited by oxalic acid treatment during late storage period (15-30 days), which contributed to reduce cell wall degradation and to maintain good storage quality of Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth.Correlation analysis showed that firmness was positively correlated with original pectin and cellulose (P<0.01), while firmness was negatively correlated with weight loss, soluble pectin, PG, PME, β-Glu, α-L-Af, and Cx (P<0.01).Path analysis results showed that soluble pectin, Cx, β-Gal, α-L-Af, PME, β-Glu, and PG could promote the decline of firmness, while original pectin and cellulose could delay the decline of firmness of Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth.Original pectin had an indirect negative effect on firmness through soluble pectin, while both soluble pectin and cellulose had an indirect positive effect on firmness through original pectin.In conclusion, the decrease of firmness was closely related to cell wall degradation of Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth.Treated with 10 mmol/L oxalic acids could inhibit cell wall degradation and maintain good storage quality of Stachys flordana Schuttl.ex Benth.
