Abstract
The effect of BTH dipping treatment on postharvest disease control and storage quality of muskmelon fruits was investigated.Muskmelon(Cucumis melo L.cv.Yujinxiang) fruits were dipped in 0.1 g/L BTH solution for 10 min.The inhibitory effect of BTH treatment on the lesion area of fruits inoculated with Trichothecium roseum and natural disease incidence and major quality parameters of muskmelons was observed during storage at room temperature.The results showed that BTH treatment resulted in a significant decrease in the lesion area of fruits inoculated with Trichothecium roseum and the natural disease incidence of fruits during storage at room temperature(P0.05).Moreover,BTH treatment could induce the activation of defense enzymes including phenylalanine ammonia lyase(PAL),peroxidase(POD) and polyphenol oxidase(PPO) in fruits.Furthermore,BTH treatment could also delay the increase of weight loss rate and soluble pectin content,remarkably retard the decrease in fruit firmness and VC and soluble solid contents,and postpone fruit yellowing,thus delaying the senescence of muskmelons and increasing disease resistance and storage quality of fruits.
