BACKGROUND : In some cultivars, yellowing resulting from chlorophyll breakdown has a direct and neg. effect on food supply and health. The ‘Zaosu’ pear (Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd.), a com. Asian pear cultivar in China, rapidly turns yellow when stored at room temperature after harvest. To develop techniques that delay or suppress chlorophyll degradation, the effects of Me salicylate (MeSA) on yellowing in ‘Zaosu’ pear fruit during storage were evaluated. RESULTS : Compared with the untreated fruit, the application of 0.05 mmol L-1 MeSA delayed the decline of the total chlorophyll, chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b content, and maintained more intact chloroplasts with fewer and smaller plastoglobuli. Me salicylate suppressed enzyme activities, including chlorophyllase, chlorophyll-degrading peroxidase, Mg dechelatase, and pheophytinase, and the expression levels of NYC, NOL, CLH, SGR, PPH, PAO and RCCR in treated fruit. CONCLUSION : Me salicylate could delay chlorophyll breakdown in the fruit. The results also suggested that the conversion from chlorophyll a to pheophorbide a could proceed via two pathways, and that alternative pathways for the breakdown of chlorophyll a exist in ‘Zaosu’ pears. © 2019 Society of Chem.
