Project description:Background: Litchi has high commercial value for its bright color and rich nutrients. However, it deteriorates with the pericarp turning brown within 1-2 days after harvest. The factors that mediate litchi fruit senescence are complicated. MicroRNAs act as negative regulators involving in almost every physiological process. To understand the mechanism of litchi fruit senescence and pericarp browning from miRNA level, five small RNA libraries and a degradome library from the pericarp of litchi fruit stored at ambient and post cold shelf-life were sequenced. Results: By aligning the sRNA reads onto litchi unigene assembly, 296 miRNAs belonging to 49 known miRNA families were first identified from litchi. In addition, eleven litchi-specific miRNAs were identified. Among these, 167 known miRNAs were identified to cleave 197 targets, and three litchi-specific miRNAs were found to have five targets. Through combined analysis of stem-loop quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and transcriptome profiling, 14 miRNA-target pairs were found to be actively involved in litchi fruit senescence-related processes, including energy regulation, anthocyanin metabolism, hormone signaling, and pathogen-infection defense. Conclusions: A network of miRNA-target that regulates litchi fruit senescence has been proposed, revealing the miRNA-mediated regulation in senescent litchi fruit. This will aid to develop new strategies to postpone the senescence of litchi fruit and other horticultural products.

Project description:Both exogenously supplied and transgenic induced cytokinin production can effectively delay senescence of broccoli florets during postharvest storage. However, a substantial comparison between the mechanisms of these two treatments on delaying broccoli florets senescence was absent. Here, we conduct microarray analysis on broccoli florets of N6-benzylaminopurine treated and ipt-transgenic broccoli that harbor a senescence-associated-gene promoter triggering isopentenyltransferase gene expression during postharvest storage. Analysis used RNA of Green King inbred line 104 as control sample for comparison to the experimental samples of ipt-transgenic line 102, 103 and parental line Green King as well as 10 ppm BA treated Green King at harvest and after postharvest storage at 25 centigrade in the dark for 4 days.

Project description:Background: Anthocyanins are the most important compounds for nutritional quality and economic values of blood orange. However, there are few reports on the pre-harvest treatment accelerate the accumulation of anthocyanins in postharvest blood orange fruit. Here, we performed a comparative Transcriptome and metabolomics analysis to elucidate the underlying mechanism involved in seasonal drought (SD) treatment during fruit expansion stage on anthocyanin accumulation in postharvest ‘Tarocco’ blood orange fruit. Results: Our results showed that SD treatment slowed down the fruit enlargement and increased the sugar accumulation during fruit development and matured period. Obviously, under SD treatment, the accumulation of anthocyanin in blood orange fruit during postharvest storage was significantly accelerated and markedly higher than that in CK. Meanwhile, the total flavonoids and phenols contents and antioxidant activity in SD treatment fruit were also sensibly increased during postharvest storage. Based on metabolome, we found that substrates required for anthocyanin biosynthesis, such as amino acids and their derivatives, and phenolic acids, have significantly accumulated and higher in SD treated mature fruit compared with that of CK. Further according to the results of transcriptome data and weighted gene coexpression correlation network analysis (WGCNA) analysis, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL3) was considered key structural gene. qRT-PCR analysis verified that the PAL3 was highly expressed in SD treated postharvest stored fruit and was significantly positively correlated with the anthocyanin content. Moreover, we found that other structural genes in anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway were also upregulated under SD treatment through transcriptome data and qRT-PCR analysis. Conclusions: The findings suggest that SD treatment promotes the accumulation of substrates necessary for anthocyanin biosynthesis during fruit ripening process, and activates the expression of anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway genes during postharvest storage period, especially PAL3, co-contributed to the rapid accumulation of anthocyanin. The present study provides a theoretical basis for postharvest quality control and water-saving utilization of blood orange fruit.

Project description:A transcriptome analysis was applied on two peach (Prunus persica L.) cultivars with different sensitivity to low temperature regimes to identify cold-responsive genes that might be involved in tolerance to long low temperature storage. Peach fruit from ‘Morettini No2’ and ‘Royal Glory’, a sensitive and a tolerant, to chilling injury cultivars, respectively, were harvested at commercial maturity stage and allowed to ripen at room temperature (25°C) or subjected to 4 and 6-weeks of cold storage (0°C, 95% R.H.) followed by ripening at room temperature. Microarray experiments, employing the peach microarray platform (μ PEACH 1.0), were carried out by comparing harvested fruit against 4- and 6-week cold-stored fruit. The analysis identified 173 and 313 genes that were differentially expressed in ‘Morettini No2’ and ‘Royal Glory’ fruit after 4 weeks, respectively. However, the 6 weeks cold storage provoked a decrease in the total number of genes differentially expressed in both cultivars. RNA blot analysis validated the differential expression of certain genes showed in microarray data. Among these genes, two heat shock proteins (hsps), a putative β-D-xylosidase, an expansin, a dehydrin and a pathogenesis-related protein PR-4B precursor were induced during cold storage in both cultivars. The induction of hsps and the putative β-D-xylosidase appeared to be independent on the duration of postharvest treatment. On the other hand, transcript levels of lipoxygenase were quite constant during postharvest ripening, while a strong reduction or disappearance was observed after cold storage. A dehydration-induced RD22-like protein showed a reduction in the accumulation of transcripts during postharvest ripening independently on the temperature conditions. Overall, the current study shed some light on the molecular aspects of cold stress in peach fruit quality and identified some ripening and/or cold-induced genes which function need further elucidation.

Project description:We report on the kiwifruit postharvest phase through an approach consisting of 2D-DIGE/nanoLC-ESI-LIT-MS/MS-based proteomic measurements. Kiwifruit samples stored under conventional, cold-based postharvest conditions were sampled at four stages (from fruit harvest to pre-commercialization) and analyzed in comparison protein content. Proteomics showed that proteins associated with disease/defense, energy, protein destination/storage, cell structure and metabolism functions were affected at precise fruit postharvest times. By lining up kiwifruit postharvest processing to a proteomic depiction, this study integrates previous observations on protein content in postharvest pomes treated with specific chemical additives, and provides a reference framework for further studies on the optimization of fruit storage before its commercialization.
