In this study, we investigated the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, energy metabolism, and changes of mitochondrial proteins in harvested muskmelon fruits (Cucumis melo cv. Yujinxiang) inoculated with Trichothecium roseum. The results indicated that the fungal infection obviously induced the H2O2 accumulation in mitochondria. Enzyme activities were inhibited in the first 6 h postinoculation (hpi), including succinic dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase, H+-ATPase, and Ca2+-ATPase. However, the activities of Ca2+-ATPase and 11+-ATPase and the contents of intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were improved to a higher level at 12 hpi. A total of 42 differentially expressed proteins were identified through tandem mass tagsbased proteomic analyses, which are mainly involved in energy metabolism, stress responses and redox homeostasis, glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid cycle, and transporter and mitochondria dysfunction. Taken together, our results suggest that mitochondria play crucial roles in the early defense responses of muskmelons against T. roseum infection through regulation of ROS production and energy metabolism. 收起
