挥发性香气物质和乙烯生产在"湖景蜜露"桃果实发育过程中的变化

以"湖景蜜露"水蜜桃(Prunus persica L.)为试材,检测了果实从未成熟到成熟发育过程中乙烯生成、呼吸速率及挥发性香气性物质的变化;同时对果实大小、果皮色泽、果肉硬度、可溶性固形物、可滴定酸进行了测定;对与果实乙烯产生密切相关的1-氨基环丙烷-1-羧酸(ACC)含量、ACC合成酶活性、ACC氧化酶活性也进行了测定.结果表明,随果实成熟度的增加,果实大小、果皮L*值、可溶性固形物含量增加,而果实硬度、果皮h°值、可滴定酸含量减少.在未成熟的果实中,C6的醛类(反式-2-己烯醛)和醇类(顺式-3-己烯醇)是主要的成分;乙烯生成量很低;呼吸速率较高.到跃变阶段C6～C12的内酯类物质明显增加,尤其是γ和δ-内酯类成为果实主要的香气挥发性物质.推测果实乙烯、呼吸作用等基本的生理变化可能调节着内酯类物质的生成.在乙烯跃变上升时果肉中ACC氧化酶的活性下降,ACC含量和ACC合成酶活力的变化与乙烯生成量变化的趋势一致.根据以上结果可以认为桃果实主要的香气挥发性物质的形成与乙烯、呼吸跃变的开始密切相关.香气物质形成速率动态变化可能是桃果实发育过程中成熟度的另一个生理学指标.     

Storage of 'Gloster 69' apples in the preclimacteric state for up to 200 days after harvest

'Gloster 69' apples are unusual because they do not accumulate ethylene during storage at 2 kPa O₂ at 1.5–3.5°C with continuous ethylene removal. Their ethylene physiology and the extent of various ripening processes in storage were investigated. Ethylene production and l-aminocyclopropane-l-carboxylic acid (ACC) remained low for up to 200 days, and both increased on transfer of fruit to 15°C. The increase in ACC could be stimulated by ethylene treatment of apples after storage. In spite of this evidence that fruit remained preclimacteric, some softening and production of soluble pectin and volatile esters occurred at 3.5°C. These processes were suppressed at 1.5°C, but chlorophyll, starch, malate and sucrose losses and increases in glucose and fructose occurred at both temperatures.     

番茄果实成熟过程中钙调素含量变化及其与乙烯生成的关系

应用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)测定番茄(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill大红品种)果实成熟过程中钙调素(CaM)含量的变化。果实开始成熟(发白期),CaM含量随着呼吸跃变上升,成熟时(粉红期)达到最大,过熟衰老时则下降。果实内部乙烯浓度、ACC含量及其合成酶活性也随跃变而增加,随过熟衰老而降低。GaM含量在果实不同部位中的分布有明显差异,跃变上升期以子房腔组织含量最高,并由中心向外逐渐降低,外周果皮含量最低。此时用外源乙烯催熟处理促进各部位CaM增加。成熟衰老时子房腔组织首先衰老,CaM含量大为降低,但在中柱和果皮中却高于跃变上升期。外源乙烯促进衰老使CaM下降。Ca~(2+)促进番茄圆片CaM含量增高和乙烯产生,CaM抑制剂CPZ,TFP在降低CaM含量的同时也抑制乙烯的产生。     

乙烯对番茄成熟过程中果皮细胞核超微结构的影响

应用冰冻蚀刻和透射电镜观察了番茄成熟过程中果皮细胞核染色质的变化。成熟过程开始启动时(发白期),异染色质不断减少、分散,直至转色成熟。果实成熟衰老时细胞核形态畸变,染色质结构瓦解。经外源乙烯处理后果实成熟加速,异染色质减少,核孔数量增加,NBD可消除乙烯的作用。     

Changes during low-oxygen storage in the effects of ethylene on induction of ethylene synthesis and stimulation of respiration of 'Gloster 69' apples

The ability of ethylene to stimulate respiration and advance the onset of rapid ethylene production was investigated at different times during storage of 'Gloster 69' apples in 2 kPa O₂ at 1.5–3.5°C. Ethylene stimulated respiration in apples at 15°C immediately after harvest; maximal rates were recorded at 10–1000 μl I⁻¹ but attainment of these rates was delayed after low O₂ storage until day 3 of treatment at 15°C. The onset of rapid ethylene production at 15°C occurred later in non-ethylene-treated apples after storage than after harvest. Ethylene production was induced in some apples during ethylene treatment for 3 or 6 days; in others it was induced about 20 days after treatment, but a proportion of the fruit showed no induction in the 45-day duration of experiments. An ethylene treatment at 10 μl I⁻¹ led to a near maximal increase in the frequency of induction of ethylene production at all times. After storage apples were mainly induced during treatment or not induced, whereas after harvest induction after treatment was more frequent. The presence of 2000 μl l⁻¹ norbornadiene during ethylene treatment inhibited the stimulation of respiration and the induction of ethylene production; this inhibition was only partly reversed by ethylene at 1000 μl l⁻¹ the experiments suggest that receptors for ethylene were present at all stages but that response capacity changed during storage.     

番茄成熟过程中果皮细胞核孔变化及其与乙烯生成的关系

应用冰冻蚀刻技术探讨了番茄(Lycopersiconesculentum Mill 大红品种)成熟过程中果皮细胞核孔的变化。成熟开始发动时(发白期前,IEC>0.1 ppm)核孔就开始扩大,起初核孔扩大比IEC增加更快,转包期(IEC约10 ppm)达到最大,以后不再变化。核孔扩大先于ACC含量增加。核孔的数量从转色期增加,粉红期最大,成熟后又减少。     

Changes in Structural Features of Free N-Glycan and Endoglycosidase Activity during Tomato Fruit Ripening

In developing plants, free N-glycans occur ubiquitously at micromolar concentrations. Such oligosaccharides have been proposed to be signaling molecules in plant development. As a part of a study to elucidate the physiological roles of de-N-glycosylation machinery involved in fruit ripening, we analyzed changes in the amounts and structural features of free N-glycans in tomato fruits at four ripening stages. The amount of high-mannose type free N-glycans increased significantly in accordance with fruit ripening, and the relative amounts of high-molecular size N-glycans, such as Man_8-9GlcNAc₁, became predominant. These observations suggest that the de-N-glycosylation machinery, including endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) activity, is stimulated in the later stages of fruit ripening. But contrary to expectation, we found that total ENGase activities in the tomato fruits did not vary significantly with the ripening process, suggesting that ENGase activity must be maintained at a certain level, and that the expression of α-mannosidase involved in the clearance of free N-glycans decreases during tomato fruit ripening.     

脂氧合酶、茉莉酸和水杨酸对猕猴桃果实后熟软化进程中乙烯生物合成的调控

20℃下后熟果实的LOX活性增加先于自由基产生和乙烯生成;JA处理对果实后熟软化启动期(采后1d)和果实快速软化期(采后5d)果实切片中的LOX活性、自由基产生和乙烯生物合成有促进作用,至果实软化后期(采后7d)这种效应消失;亚油酸只在采后1d果实切片中促使LOX活性和乙烯生成;SA处理抑制了果实后熟进程中组织切片的LOX活性、自由基产生和乙烯的生物合成;SA和JA对LOX活性和乙烯生物合成具有明显的拮抗作用。     

低温对梨(Pyrus communis L.)果实后熟过程中乙烯合成和反应的影响(英文)

Passe Crassane梨果实采后需经过 6 0～ 80d的低温处理才能正常后熟。为了明确低温促进果实成熟的机理 ,对果实进行了低温和低温结合 1 MCP(1 甲基环丙烯 ,乙烯作用抑制剂 )和丙烯 (乙烯类似物 )处理。研究发现 :果实经低温处理后 ,乙烯合成前体———ACC含量大幅度升高 ,而未经低温处理的果实 ,无论贮藏在空气中或用丙烯 1 0 0 0μl/L处理 ,果实中ACC、M ACC含量均保持较低水平。但冷藏前用 1 MCP处理可抑制冷藏果实或冷藏后升温的果实ACC含量的增高。这说明果实的后熟过程与低温和依赖乙烯的ACC合成酶的活性和基因的表达密切相关。未经冷藏的果实于 2 0℃下用丙烯处理 ,果实不能自发合成乙烯 ,但当果实经过冷藏后再用丙烯处理 ,则果实对丙烯的反应能力随冷藏时间延长而增强。为了进一步了解低温诱导的乙烯反应过程。我们对乙烯受体基因进行了研究。定量PCR分析结果表明 ,与拟南芥ETR1同源的基因的表达不受低温的调节。但冷藏后升温 ,或在升温后用丙烯处理时 ,mRNA含量降低。这些结果说明 ,低温可能是通过影响乙烯信号转导途径下游的其它因子而调节依赖乙烯的ETR1基因和ACC合成酶基因的表达 ,从而影响果实的成熟过程     

Effect of Down-Regulation of Ethylene Biosynthesis on Fruit Flavor Complex in Apple Fruit

The role of ethylene in regulating sugar, acid, texture and volatile components of fruit quality was investigated in transgenic apple fruit modified in their capacity to synthesize endogenous ethylene. Fruit obtained from plants silenced for either ACS (ACC synthase; ACC-1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid) or ACO (ACC oxidase), key enzymes responsible for ethylene biosynthesis, expectedly showed reduced autocatalytic ethylene production. Ethylene suppressed fruits were significantly firmer than controls and displayed an increased shelf-life. No significant difference was observed in sugar or acid accumulation suggesting that sugar and acid composition and accumulation is not directly under ethylene control. Interestingly, a significant and dramatic suppression of the synthesis of volatile esters was observed in fruit silenced for ethylene. However, no significant suppression was observed for the aldehyde and alcohol precursors of these esters. Our results indicate that ethylene differentially regulates fruit quality components and the availability of these transgenic apple trees provides a unique resource to define the role of ethylene and other factors that regulate fruit development.     

ABA和乙烯在草莓采后成熟衰老中的作用

随着草莓果实采后成熟衰老,ABA和乙烯生成迅速增长,乙烯累积与果实的变质腐烂程度呈正相关。ABA处理能增高纤维素酶活性和呼吸,而GA有抑制作用。ABA能促进乙烯、ACC生成,对MACC则无影响。GA_3抑制乙烯、ACC生成,促进MACC积累。CO_2对草莓有良好保鲜效果,并有效地抑制ABA和乙烯生成,低温下效果更为显著。

Storage of Tomatoes in Low Oxygen Atmospheres Inhibits Ethylene Action and Polygalacturonase Activity

The effect of low concentrations of O₂ (1%) with or without the application of exogenous ethylene (10 l/l) on the production of endogenous ethylene, the activity of polygalacturonase (PG), and the ripening of tomato fruits during storage for three weeks at 20°C and four weeks at 10°C, followed by one week under ambient conditions (25°C) was studied. The internal ethylene concentration in the fruits stored under low O₂ at 10 or 20°C was low during storage and increased only when fruits were transferred to ambient conditions. The application of exogenous ethylene to fruits stored under low O₂ at 10 or 20°C did not induce autocatalytic ethylene synthesis. By contrast, the internal ethylene concentration of fruits stored in air was high at 20°C and somewhat lower at 10°C. Under low O₂ conditions, PG activity was low and the fruits remained firm and green throughout storage, whereas, during storage in the air, PG activity increased and the fruits softened and developed their characteristic red color.
