| Abstract | Enzymatic browning has a considerable negative impact on the acceptability and marketability of freshly cut apples. However, the molecular mechanism by which selenium (Se) positively affects freshly cut apples in this regard is not yet clear. In this study, 0.75 kg/plant of Se-enriched organic fertilizer was applied to 'Fuji' apple trees during the young fruit stage (M5, May 25th), the early fruit enlargement stage (M6, June 25th), and the fruit enlargement stage (M7, July 25th), respectively. The same amount of Se-free organic fertilizer was applied as a control. Herein, the regulatory mechanism by which exogenous Se exerts its anti-browning effect in freshly cut apples was investigated. The results showed that the M7 treatment applied in Se-reinforced apples could remarkably inhibit their browning at 1 h after being freshly cut. Additionally, the expression of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD) genes treated with exogenous Se were significantly reduced compared to controls. Moreover, the lipoxygenase (LOX) and phospholipase D (PLD) genes, which are involved in membrane lipid oxidation, were expressed at higher levels in the control. The gene expression levels of the antioxidant enzymes catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione S-transferase (GST), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were upregulated in the different exogenous Se treatment groups. Similarly, the main metabolites measured during the browning process were phenols and lipids; thus, it could be speculated that the mechanism by which exogenous Se produces its anti-browning effect may be by reducing phenolase activity, improving the antioxidant capacity of the fruits, and alleviating membrane lipid peroxidation. In summary, this study provides evidence and insight regarding the response mechanism employed by exogenous Se to inhibit browning in freshly cut apples. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
