RESUMO
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been identified as a critical gaseous signaling chemical. Herein, the effects of H2S treatment on the postharvest goji berries and antioxidant enzyme activities were determined. H2S application delayed the decay index, loss of firmness, color, flavor, and total sugars and loss of total protein, betaine and ascorbic acid in goji berries during postharvest storage. Meanwhile, H2S noticeably reduced the MDA, H2O2, and O2- accumulation. Additionally, it was shown that H2S increased the activity of catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), peroxidase (POD), glutathione reductase (GR) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) while decreased the quantity of lipoxygenase (LOX). The mRNA expression of LDC, DCD, CAT, APX, POD, GR and SOD was up-regulated but LOX, RBOH-b and RBOH-e was down-regulated in goji berries after H2S treatment. Altogether, H2S could efficiently delay the senescence, improves postharvest quality, increase the bioactive compounds accumulation, and boost the antioxidant capacity of goji berries through modulating antioxidant enzyme system.

This article documents the addition of 142 microsatellite marker loci to the Molecular Ecology Resources database. Loci were developed for the following species: Agriophyllum squarrosum, Amazilia cyanocephala, Batillaria attramentaria, Fungal strain CTeY1 (Ascomycota), Gadopsis marmoratus, Juniperus phoenicea subsp. turbinata, Liriomyza sativae, Lupinus polyphyllus, Metschnikowia reukaufii, Puccinia striiformis and Xylocopa grisescens. These loci were cross-tested on the following species: Amazilia beryllina, Amazilia candida, Amazilia rutila, Amazilia tzacatl, Amazilia violiceps, Amazilia yucatanensis, Campylopterus curvipennis, Cynanthus sordidus, Hylocharis leucotis, Juniperus brevifolia, Juniperus cedrus, Juniperus osteosperma, Juniperus oxycedrus, Juniperus thurifera, Liriomyza bryoniae, Liriomyza chinensis, Liriomyza huidobrensis and Liriomyza trifolii.
