Abstract
Peaches are grown in many Egyptian orchards for local and global fresh market sales. The interior fruit tissue breakdown (IFTB), often resulting in decayed peaches, is a severe problem during marketing. Therefore, to minimize FTB of peaches, in this study, gum arabic (GA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were mixed with different concentrations of salicylic acid (SA) (0, 1, and 2 mM) and were applied as edible coating to extend the shelf life of peach fruits. Mature peaches were selected and harvested when peaches reached total soluble solid content (SSC: 8.5%) and fruit firmness of about 47 N. Fruits were coated and stored at room temperature (26 ± 1 °C and air humidity 51 ± 1%) for 10 days during two seasons: 2020 and 2021. Fruit coated with GA/PVP-SA 2 mM showed a significant (p < 0.05) inhibition in degrading enzyme activities (CWDEs), such as lipoxygenase (LOX), cellulase (CEL), and pectinase (PT), compared to uncoated and coated fruits during the shelf-life period. Hence, cell wall compartments were maintained. Consequently, there was a reduction in browning symptoms in fruits by inhibiting polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activities. Thus, the fruit skin browning index showed almost no symptoms. The lipid peroxidation process and ionic permeability declined as well. The result suggests that, by applying GA/PVP-SA 2 mM as an edible coating, fruit tissue breakdown can be minimized, and the shelf life of peach can be extended up to 10 days without symptoms of tissue breakdown.

Acidic electrolyzed water treatment retards softening and retains cell wall polysaccharides in pulp of postharvest fresh longans and its possible mechanism. Food Chem X 2022; 13:100265.

Abstract
AEW delayed pulp softening of longans via suppressing cell wall disassembly. AEW down-regulated expression levels of longan pulp cell wall degrading-related genes. AEW decreased activities of cell wall degrading enzymes in pulp of harvested longans. AEW retained higher levels of longan pulp CWM, CSP, ISP, cellulose, and hemicellulose.
Effects of acidic electrolyzed water (AEW) treatment (pH = 2.5, ACC = 80 mg L−1, 10 min) on pulp firmness, amounts of CWM and CWP, activities and expression of relevant genes of CWDEs in pulp of Fuyan longan during storage at 25 °C were evaluated. Compared to control samples, during storage, AEW-treated fruit retained a higher pulp firmness, prevented WSP formation, reduced the degradation of CSP, cellulose and hemicellulose, and lowered CWDEs activities and their corresponding gene expression. When stored for 5 d, pulp firmness (113.6 g mm−1), CWM (13.9 g kg−1), and CSP (1.4 g kg−1) in AEW-treated fruit displayed the clearly higher contents than those in control samples. These data suggest that AEW treatment can slow down the pulp softening and retain higher pulp CWP levels in postharvest fresh longans, which was because AEW lowered activities of CWDEs and its gene expression levels, and maintained the cell wall structure's integrity.

Abstract
Compared to the control longans, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-treated longans exhibited higher index of pulp breakdown, higher fruit respiration rate, higher activities of pulp phosphohexose isomerase (PGI), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), cytochrome C oxidase (CCO), ascorbic acid oxidase (AAO) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO), but lower activity of pulp nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide kinase (NADK). H2O2-treated longans also exhibited lower total activities of pulp glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGDH), lower levels of pulp NADP(H), but higher levels of pulp NAD(H). These data indicated that H2O2-stimulated longan pulp breakdown was owing to a decreased proportion of pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), the increased proportions of Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway (EMP), tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and cytochrome pathway (CCP) in total respiratory pathways. These findings further revealed that H2O2 could enhance respiration rate, and thus accelerate pulp breakdown occurrence and shorten the shelf life of longan fruit.

Integrated Transcriptomic, Proteomic, and Metabolomics Analysis Reveals Peel Ripening of Harvested Banana under Natural Condition. Biomolecules 2019; 9:biom9050167.

Abstract
Harvested banana ripening is a complex physiological and biochemical process, and there are existing differences in the regulation of ripening between the pulp and peel. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing peel ripening are still not well understood. In this study, we performed a combination of transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomics analysis on peel during banana fruit ripening. It was found that 5784 genes, 94 proteins, and 133 metabolites were differentially expressed or accumulated in peel during banana ripening. Those genes and proteins were linked to ripening-related processes, including transcriptional regulation, hormone signaling, cell wall modification, aroma synthesis, protein modification, and energy metabolism. The differentially expressed transcriptional factors were mainly ethylene response factor (ERF) and basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family members. Moreover, a great number of auxin signaling-related genes were up-regulated, and exogenous 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA) treatment accelerated banana fruit ripening and up-regulated the expression of many ripening-related genes, suggesting that auxin participates in the regulation of banana peel ripening. In addition, xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase (XTH) family members play an important role in peel softening. Both heat shock proteins (Hsps) mediated-protein modification, and ubiqutin-protesome system-mediated protein degradation was involved in peel ripening. Furthermore, anaerobic respiration might predominate in energy metabolism in peel during banana ripening. Taken together, our study highlights a better understanding of the mechanism underlying banana peel ripening and provides a new clue for further dissection of specific gene functions.

Abstract
Understanding ripening and senescence processes in postharvest stored fruit is key to the identification and implementation of effective treatment methods. Here, we explored the effects of exogenous applications of melatonin (MT) and nitric oxide (NO) on ripening and softening processes in three cultivars of European pear ( Pyrus communis L.). The results showed that MT and NO played important roles in the two processes: they decreased the rate of upregulation of PcCel and PcPG, inhibited expression of ethylene synthetase genes ( PcACS and PcACO), and reduced rates of respiration and ethylene production. MT increased activity of NO synthase through upregulation of expression of PcNOS that subsequently led to an increase in NO content. However, when NO synthesis was inhibited, the delaying effect of MT on fruit senescence was almost eliminated. These findings indicate that MT acted on the upstream process of NO synthesis that then delayed senescence in pear fruit.

Preharvest zinc sulfate spray improves the storability of longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) fruits by protecting the cell wall components and antioxidants of pericarp. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2019; 99:1098-1107.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Zinc (Zn) fertilization has been reported to improve the quality and storability of many fruits, but the mechanism had not been systematically studied. In this study, the effect of preharvest 0.2% zinc sulfate (ZnSO4 ) spray on the storability of longan fruits was investigated. RESULTS The preharvest ZnSO4 spray did not significantly influence the quality but increased the Zn content in longan pericarp by 12.5-fold. More importantly, the treatment significantly reduced the rotting rate, pericarp browning, and aril breakdown of longan fruits stored at room temperature and low temperature. Physiological and biochemical results indicated that the treatment resulted in higher water retention capacity and inhibited the degradation of cellulose, pectin, flavonoid, and phenolics of longan pericarp at the late stages of storage. Consistent with these results, the activity of cellulase, polygalacturonase, polyphenol oxidase, and lipoxygenase was significantly inhibited in the ZnSO4 -treated longan pericarp at the late stages of storage. CONCLUSION Higher Zn content in the ZnSO4 -treated longan pericarp might help to enhance the resistance against microbial infection, inhibit the hydrolysis of cell wall components, and thus effectively protected the cell wall components, maintained the cellular compartmentation, and prevented the phenolics and flavonoid from degradation by browning-related enzymes. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Avocado is an important tropical fruit with high commercial value, but has a relatively short storage life. In this study, the effects of cold shock treatment (CST) on shelf life of naturally ripened and ethylene-ripened avocado fruits were investigated. Fruits were immersed in ice water for 30 min, then subjected to natural or ethylene-induced ripening. Fruit color; firmness; respiration rate; ethylene production; and the activities of polygalacturonase (PG), pectin methylesterase (PME), and endo-β-1,4-glucanase were measured. Immersion in ice water for 30 min effectively delayed ripening-associated processes, including peel discoloration, pulp softening, respiration rate, and ethylene production during shelf life. The delay in fruit softening by CST was associated with decreased PG and endo-β-1,4-glucanase activities, but not PME activity. This method could potentially be a useful postharvest technology to extend shelf life of avocado fruits.

Abstract
Mandarin (Citrus reticulata), a non-climacteric fruit, is an economically important fruit worldwide. The mechanism underlying senescence of non-climacteric fruit is poorly understood. In this study, a gel-based proteomic study followed by LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis was carried out to investigate the proteomic changes involved in peel senescence in harvested mandarin "Shatangju" fruit stored for 18 days. Over the course of the storage period, the fruit gradually senesced, accompanied by a decreased respiration rate and increased chlorophyll degradation and disruption of membrane integrity. Sixty-three proteins spots that showed significant differences in abundance were identified. The up-regulated proteins were mainly associated with cell wall degradation, lipid degradation, protein degradation, senescence-related transcription factors, and transcription-related proteins. In contrast, most proteins associated with ATP synthesis and scavenging of reactive oxygen species were significantly down-regulated during peel senescence. Three thioredoxin proteins and three Ca(2+) signaling-related proteins were significantly up-regulated during peel senescence. It is suggested that mandarin peel senescence is associated with energy supply efficiency, decreased antioxidant capability, and increased protein and lipid degradation. In addition, activation of Ca(2+) signaling and transcription factors might be involved in cell wall degradation and primary or secondary metabolism.
