Abstract

【Objective】 The effects of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) on cold resistance, reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism and Ca2+-ATPase activity of postharvest banana fruit were investigated in this paper. 【Method】 Banana peels were treated with 10 μmol·L -1 MeJA for 1 min and incubated at 20℃ for 1 day (sampled as Day 0) , and then incubated in vitro at 7℃ for 10 days. The chilling injury index, cell membrane permeability, contents of H2O2 and , changes in activities of CAT, APX, NADPH oxidase and Ca2+-ATPase were determined.【Result】 Compared with control peels, the chilling injury index of MeJA treated peels was less and the increase of cell membrane permeability was slower. Moreover, MeJA treatment induced the increase of H2O2 content and production and maintained their high levels in early 4 days. However, MeJA treatment reduced the activities of CAT and APX and maintained low activity in early 4 days. MeJA treatment was also found to induce the activities of NADPH oxidase and Ca2+-ATPase of banana peels.【Conclusion】The reactive oxygen species induced by MeJA might serve as signal moleculars and be involved in chilling injury and chilling resistance of banana peels, and they might also induce calcium signaling.
