Abstract:

Disease-resistant mechanism of post-harvest fruits and vegetables induced by antagonists has been reviewed. The antagonists improved resistance to disease in fruits and vegetables by improving the content of phyto alexi and the activities of defense enzymes such as chintinase (CHI), β-1,3-glucanase, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), peroxidase (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO). The antagonists also regulated the active oxygen metabolism, and strengthened the resistance of organization structure in fruits and vegetables. These studies on disease-resistant mechanism induced by the antagonists will provide references for the application of biological technology for disease control in post-harvest fruits and vegetables.

Key words: biological control, antagonist, post-harvest disease, induced disease-resistant mechanism
