Use of soluble Methyl jasmonate on increase of lifetime after harvesting mushroom (Agaricusbisporus)
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Dipping treatment of aqueous solutions of methyl jasmonate (MJ) at different levels (0, 0.5 and 1 mM) was investigated as a possible strategy for postharvest button mushroom(Agaricusbisporus) quality enhancement during storage. Changes in colour, total soluble protein contents,polyphenoloxidase (PPO, EC 1.10.3.1), peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents, and yeasts and molds were studied as quality markers. As compared to control, methyl jasmonate resulted in better colour maintenance during storage by decreasing the activities of PPO and POD and also reduced the accumulationof MDA. Our results suggest that exogenous application of methyl jasmonate at 0.5 mM concentration as dipping treatment can serve as promising tool for quality enhancement of button mushroom during storage.
