TL;DR: Conferring chilling tolerance in tomato fruits in response to exogenous melatonin applying at 100 µM may arise from upregulating SlZAT2/6/12 giving rise to triggering CBF1 gene expression.

TL;DR: In this paper, a postharvest treatments attenuate stresses, delay senescence and maintain quality in horticultural crops by ensuring sufficient iATP supplying, which was accompanied with lower phospholipase D (PLD) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes activity concomitant with higher antioxidant system activity which along with higher heat shock proteins (HSPs) accumulation resulting in lower reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, which is crucial for membrane fluidity and integrity maintaining and cell wall fortification.

TL;DR: Keeping nutraceutical properties of pomegranate fruits treated with melatonin may ascribe to sufficient intracellular NADPH supply by promoting G6PDH and 6PGDH activities during cold storage.

TL;DR: In this article, the mechanism hired by melatonin treatments (0, 1, 10, 100 and 1000 μM) for conferring chilling tolerance in pomegranate fruit during storage at 4 °C for 120 days was explored.

TL;DR: In this paper, exogenous melatonin treatment may serve as beneficial procedure for response to chilling stress in tomato fruits by signaling H2O2 accumulation responsible for promoting endogenous melatonin accumulation accompanying by stimulating GABA shunt pathway activity.
