摘要： Starch degradation plays a central role in fruit ripening. The (3-amylase (Bam) catalysts starch degradation of apple fruit. However, the molecular mechanism regulating Bam gene expression in apples remains unclear. Using yeast one-hybrid library screening, we identified a transcription factor MdGTL1a that directly binds to the MdBam8 promoter. This bind was verified by using an electrophoretic mobility shift assay and confirmed to enhance the promotor activity of MdBam8 by promoter-(3-glucuronidase transactivation assay. Transient over- expression of MdGTL1a activated MdBam8 expression and further enhanced starch degradation in apple flesh. Subcellular localization analyses in tobacco protoplasts demonstrated that the nucleus was the exclusive location of the MdGTL1a-GFP fusion protein. Exogenous salicylic acid treatment decreased MdGTL1a expression and resulted in higher starch content in apples, which was consistent with the fruit ripening. It is concluded that salicylic acid treatment could enhance apple storage quality by inhibiting starch degradation through a crucial transcription factor, MdGTL1a.
