Abstract

To explore the effects of exogenous melatonin treatment on postharvest flavor and fruit quality in citrus fruit, ‘Aiyuan 38’ citrus after harvest were immersed with 1.0 g/L melatonin to determine the changes of fruit quality and relevant indicators of ethanol metabolism during storage at low temperature (6~8 ℃). The results showed that compared with the control group, the freshness and the Vitamin C (Vc) content of citrus were significantly increased by 21.40% and 8.85% (P<0.05), and melatonin maintained the soluble contents(TSS), and inhibited the respiratory intensity. On the 60th day of storage, the pyruvate content of citrus treated with melatonin increased by 17.42%, while the ethanol and acetaldehyde content decreased by 52.21% and 36.85% (P<0.05), respectively. In the meantime, the gene expression and enzymatic activities of pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) showed a downtrend. Treatment with melatonin at the concentration of 1.0 g/L can effectively reduce the accumulation of ethanol in citrus fruits and improve the fruit quality, which provides a theoretical reference for postharvest regulation of fruit flavor quality.
