摘要: Ascorbic acid (ASA) is an essential antioxidant, participating in diverse processes. In this study, tomato fruit at two maturity stages (mature-green, breaker) were first exposed to light at four photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) levels [0 (darkness), 50, 300, 600 mu mol m-2 s-1], and then to darkness. As PPFD increased, ASA content was enhanced. The light-induced ASA content increase was dependent on the maturity stage, and persisted following darkening. High PPFD up-regulated the expression of key genes of the D-mannose/L-galactose pathway, showing the biosynthesis contributed, while the ASA recycling had a limited contribution. Weighted correlation network analysis showed that high PPFD potentially enhances the photosynthetic photon transduction, especially cyclic electron flow to excess photons. High PPFD up-regulated the expression of genes encoding non-enzymatic antioxidant biosynthesis. We show that photosynthetic photon transduction mediates fruit adaptation to light intensity, and provides new insights into the interactive regulation of fruit ASA accumulation.
