Abstract
Four treatments on Fuji apple fruit with different elicitors involving methyl jasmonate(MeJA),sodium nitroprusside(SNP), salicylic acid(SA) and calcium chloride were used to determine the induction of defensive responses.The results showed that there was a significant reduction in disease incidence and lesion diameter when apple fruit were treated with solutions containing different elicitors.Among the 4 elicitors,MeJA and SNP showed the best result in reducing decay incidence and lesion diameter in apple fruit by 26.7%,26.7% and 41.6%,36.2% respectively,compared with the control.The results also indicated that all the elicitors significantly enhanced the activity of the defense-related enzymes,such as phenylalanine ammonia lyase(PAL),peroxidase(POD),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and polyphenol oxidase(PPO).Within 72 h after inoculation,the changes of PAL and PPO of 4 treatments showed the similar tendency,i.e.reached maximum followed by a decrease.SOD and POD activity kept a stable rising trend in SA treatments,while SOD and POD increased firstly then decreased afterwards in other three treatments.The peak values of PAL and POD activity occurred earlier than those of SOD and PPO under 4 treatments.The peak and average values of PAL,POD and PPO activity appeared in MeJA treatment,while SOD in SNP treatment.
