To determine the effect of different temperature on strawberry after harvest, physiological indicator analysis and proteomics analysis were conducted on ripened strawberry (“Sweet Charlie”) fruit stored at 4, 23, and 37°C for 10 or 20 days. Results showed that 4°C maintained a better visual quality of strawberry, and the weight loss and firmness remained stable within 3 days. Low temperature negatively affected anthocyanin but positively affected soluble sugars. Though anthocyanin content was higher with increasing temperature, anthocyanin synthesis related proteins were downregulated. Higher indole-acetic acid (IAA) content in seeds and lower abscisic acid (ABA) content were found in berry at 4°C. Antioxidant related proteins were upregulated during storage, showing a significant up-regulation of peroxidase (POD) at 4°C, and ascorbate-glutathione (AsA-GSH) cycle related proteins and heat shock proteins (HSPs) at 37°C. In addition, overexpressed sugar phosphate/phosphate translocator, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase, and aquaporin PIP2-2 had a positive effect in response to low temperature stress for containing higher protopectin content and POD activity.
