Black rots lead to great economic losses in winter jujube industry. The objective of this research was to delve into the underlying mechanisms of enhanced resistance of winter jujube fruit to black rot by L-Methionine (Met) treatment. The findings revealed that the application of Met significantly curtailed lesion diameter and decay incidence in winter jujube fruit. The peroxidase (POD) activity in the Met-treated jujubes was 3.06-fold that in the control jujubes after 4 d of treatment. By day 8, the activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chitinase (CHI) and β-1,3-glucanase (GLU) in the Met-treated jujubes had surged to their zenith, being 1.39, 1.22, and 1.52 times in the control group, respectively. At the end of storage, the flavonoid and total phenol content remained 1.58 and 1.06 times than that of the control group. Based on metabolomics and transcriptomics analysis, Met treatment upregulated 6 key differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) (succinic acid, trans-ferulic acid, salicylic acid, delphinium pigments, (S)-abscisic acid, and hesperidin-7-neohesperidin), 12 key differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (PAL, CYP73A, COMT, 4CL, CAD, POD, UGT72E, ANS, CHS, IAA, TCH4 and PR1), which were involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway, flavonoid biosynthesis pathway and plant hormone signal transduction pathway. Further analysis revealed that the most of the enzymes, DEMs and DEGs in this study were associated with both antioxidant and disease resistance. Consequently, Met treatment enhanced disease resistance of winter jujube fruit by elevating antioxidant capacity and triggering defense response. This study might provide theoretical support for utilizing Met in the management and prevention of post-harvest black rot in winter jujube
