Quick suberin-based healing after wounding played a protective role for plant to prevent further damage. In this study, the stimulative effect of exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) on wound suberization in postharvest kiwifruit was evaluated through suberin staining with toluidine blue O as well as the determination of suberin phenolics and aliphatics in wound tissue. Furthermore, to reveal the regulatory involvement of ABA in wound suberization, comparative quantitative proteomics and transcriptomics analyses based on iTRAQ and qRT-PCR technique were performed. In proteomics levels, a total of 95 protein species consistently showed differential abundance between ABA and control, including 29 down-regulated and 66 up-regulated protein species. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) with protein-protein interaction analyses revealed that ABA mainly affected the antioxidant system, phenylpropanoid metabolism and lipid metabolism associated with wound suberization. Based on the data of proteomics analysis, the differential expressions of genes encoding 11 selected protein species were confirmed by qRT-PCR analyses. GSH-Px, MDHAR, SOD, APX, POD, PAL, CCR, PPO, CYP86B1, DGGT and KCS11 were likely to be the key enzymes that involved the response of ABA to stimulate wound suberization by mediating the antioxidant system, phenylpropanoid metabolism and lipid metabolism.Biological significanceKiwifruit is susceptible to physical injury causing postharvest deterioration during harvest, transportation and storage. Therefore, quick healing is important for maintaining the postharvest quality of injured fruit. This work elucidated the potential role of ABA and the proteomic mechanism of its regulation in wound suberization of postharvest kiwifruit.
