Melatonin treatment maintains nutraceutical properties of pomegranate fruits during cold storage.

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.

Melatonin and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species: a model for the plant redox network

TL;DR: In this paper, the dual roles of melatonin in physiological stress situations involve both its direct action (free of receptor action) as an antioxidant and its role as a regulator of gene expression.

Melatonin alleviates pericarp browning in litchi fruit by regulating membrane lipid and energy metabolisms

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of exogenous melatonin on browning, membrane phospholipids, membrane fatty acids, energy status, and activities of enzymes associated with lipid and energy metabolisms in harvested litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn. cv. A4Wuhe) fruit during storage at 25°C.

Applications of nitric oxide and melatonin in improving postharvest fruit quality and the separate and crosstalk biochemical mechanisms

TL;DR: Recent applications of NO and MT in postharvest fruits including the effect on delaying senescence, alleviating chilling injury and controlling disease are reviewed, and the crosstalk mechanism that existing in the applications of exogenous MT and NO in postHarvest fruit preservation is summarized.

Exogenous melatonin applying confers chilling tolerance in pomegranate fruit 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.

Improving the thiobarbituric acid-reactive-substances assay for estimating lipid peroxidation in plant tissues containing anthocyanin and other interfering compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified version of the TBARS method was proposed for assessing the presence of malondialdehyde (MDA) and other non-MDA compounds absorbing at 532 nm.

Roles of the CBF2 and ZAT12 transcription factors in configuring the low temperature transcriptome of Arabidopsis.

TL;DR: Constitutive expression of ZAT 12 in Arabidopsis caused a small, but reproducible, increase in freezing tolerance, indicating a role for the ZAT12 regulon in cold acclimation.

Nitric-oxide synthase assays.

TL;DR: This chapter provides an overview of nitric-oxide synthase assays and the report of calmodulin tightly bound to macrophage NOS which is activated by very low calcium levels may explain why the inducible NOS activity is not dependent on exogenous Ca 2+ /calmodulin.

[24] Nitric oxide assay using hemoglobin method

TL;DR: The reaction that is the basis for the use of hemoproteins as efficient agents to block the biological effects of NO is proposed, using electron spin resonance (ESR) to detect and quantify the nitrosylhemoprotein product.

Role of melatonin in alleviating cold stress in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: The up‐regulation of cold signaling genes by melatonin may stimulate the biosynthesis of cold‐protecting compounds and contribute to the increased growth of plants treated with exogenous melatonin under cold stress.
