Effect of acibenzolar-S-methyl on energy metabolism and blue mould of Nanguo pear fruit

Cellular energy is closely related to fruit ripening, senescence, physiological disorder and disease resistance after harvest. Nanguo pear fruit were immersed in 100 mg L−1 Acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) for 10 min, then air-dried at ambient conditions and stored for 12 d at 20 °C to investigate the effect of ASM on the activity of enzymes involved in energy metabolism. The effect of ASM on lesion development of the pear fruit inoculated with...
