Weighted gene coexpression correlation network analysis reveals a potential molecular regulatory mechanism of anthocyanin accumulation under different storage temperatures in 'Friar' plum.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Flesh is prone to accumulate more anthocyanin in postharvest 'Friar' plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) fruit stored at an intermediate temperature. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism of anthocyanin accumulation regulated by storage temperature in postharvest plum fruit.

Results

To reveal the potential molecular regulation mechanism of anthocyanin accumulation in postharvest 'Friar' plum fruit stored at different temperatures (0 °C, 10 °C and 25 °C), the fruit quality, metabolite profile and transcriptome of its flesh were investigated. Compared to the plum fruit stored at 0 °C and 25 °C, the fruit stored at 10 °C showed lower fruit firmness after 14 days and reduced the soluble solids content after 21 days of storage. The metabolite analysis indica
