Phenolic compounds with antioxidant properties have risen in interest due to their benefits for human health. Fragaria chiloensis is a native wild berry species from Chile that develops a white/pink receptacle and white flesh at the ripe stage. Changes in color parameters, anthocyanins, secondary metabolites (phenolics, flavonoids), and total antioxidant capacity were followed during the development and ripening of F. chiloensis fruit. The increment in color 'a' index takes place in parallel with anthocyanins rise and the reduction in phenolics, flavonoids, and antioxidant capacity. Good correlations were determined between color development, anthocyanins, and the expression of key phenylpropanoid/flavonoid and anthocyanin pathway genes. To investigate the role of ABA on color development, detached immature fruit (C2 stage) were treated with exogenous ABA and stored at 20 °C. Fruit color development was accelerated by ABA treatment compared to non-treated fruit, and consistent with that, the increment in the accumulation of anthocyanins and transcripts of phenylpropanoid/flavonoid, and anthocyanin pathways genes such as FcPAL , FcCHS , and FcANS were observed. This suggests that ABA promotes transcriptional changes that lead to the color formation on this non-climacteric fruit. |
