RESUMEN

Aromatic compounds are important for fruit quality and can vary among fruit cultivars. Volatile compounds formed during the ripening of two banana cultivars, Brazilian and Fenjiao, were determined using headspace solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). These two cultivars exhibited different physiological characteristics during storage. Fenjiao fruit exhibited faster yellowing and softening, a higher respiration rate and greater ethylene production. Also, the soluble sugar content in Fenjiao fruit was much higher than in Brazilian fruit. In total, 62 and 59 volatile compounds were detected in Fenjiao and Brazilian fruits, respectively. The predominant volatile components isoamyl acetate, butanoic acid, 3-methyl-3-methylbutyl ester, hexanal, trans-2-hexenal and 1-hexanol varied during ripening stages. Moreover, esters were more abundant in Fenjiao, and propanoic acid 2-methylbutyl ester, and octanoic acid were only detected in Fenjiao. These compounds contribute to the unique flavors and aromas of the two cultivars.

RESUMEN

Background: C-repeat binding factors (CBFs) are transcription factors that regulate the expression of a number of genes related to abiotic stresses. Few CBF genes have been cloned from other plants but no report in papaya. In present study, a full-length cDNA, designated as CpCBF2, was cloned from papaya using in silico cloning and 5’- rapid amplification cDNA ends (RACE). Sequence analysis was performed to understand the gene function. The expression pattern of CpCBF2 in papaya under low (7ºC) and high temperature (35ºC) stresses was examined using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Results: The full-length cDNA of CpCBF2 was 986-bp, with a 762-bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding a 254 amino acid polypeptide. CpCBF2 contained several major highly conserved regions including the CBF-family signature PKRRAGRKKFQETRHP and FADSAW in its amino acid sequence. Phylogenetic tree and three-dimensional structure analysis showed that CpCBF2 had a relatively close relationship with other plant CBFs. Gene expression analysis showed that high temperature stress had little effect on the expression of CpCBF2 but low temperature repressed CpCBF2 expression. Conclusion: The results showed that CpCBF2 may involve in different roles in temperature stress tolerance. This study provided a candidate gene potentially useful for fruit temperature stress tolerance, although its function still needs further confirmation.
