摘要: Cold chain systems are essential for preserving the quality and nutritional value of kiwifruit and other fruits, as well as facilitating their transportation and supply. Cold chain breaks can adversely affect fruit quality and value. Therefore, exploring its metabolism and molecular basis research is of great significance for regulating cold chain breaks. Herein, the effects of kiwifruit storage under isothermal and cold chain breaks were compared and its physicochemical properties, metabolism and transcriptome profiles were investigated. Metabolomic analyses revealed that flavonoids are the primary differential metabolites suppressed by cold chain breaks. Additionally, five main biomarkers were identified in response to cold chain breaks. Transcriptomic and WGCNA analyses demonstrated that the majority of differentially expressed genes associated with ethylene synthesis and signal transduction (ACS, ACOs, ETRs), as well as starch and sucrose metabolism (BAMs, SPS, PFK, TPP), were upregulated during cold chain disruptions compared to low temperatures, while DEGs related to flavonoid biosynthesis (4CLs, CHI, F3 ' H) were downregulated. Furthermore, transcription factor AcHsfA3a was found to be correlated with flavonoids and the identified biomarkers. This study provides a theoretical basis for regulating kiwifruit cold chain breaks, improving fruit quality, and guiding cold chain transportation.
