Transcriptome Profiles Reveal the Promoting Effects of Exogenous Melatonin on Fruit Softening of Chinese Plum

Zhiyu Li,
Lu Zhang,

et al.

Abstract: In this study, we investigated the effect of exogenous melatonin (MT) on cell wall metabolism leading to Chinese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) fruit softening. Exogenous MT treatment increased the endogenous MT content in plum fruits before fruit ripening. However, in mature plum fruits, exogenous MT treatment decreased the fruit hardness, pulp hardness, fruit elasticity, contents of ion-bound pectin, covalently-bound pectin, hemicellulose, and cellulose, and activities of xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydro… Show more
