Mechanism of induced soluble sugar accumulation and organic acid reduction in plum fruits by application of melatonin [PDF]
Melatonin (MT) can improve plant resistance and fruit quality. The mechanism by which MT affects soluble sugar and organic acids accumulation in drupe fruits is not clear. In this study, 100 µmol/L MT was sprayed on the leaves of plum trees at the second
