Plant cell membranes play an important role in maintaining the microenvironment and normal metabolism of cells. Under normal conditions, the cell membrane has the selective permeability to substances, and when a plant body is affected by external stress, such as high temperature, low temperature, drought, salt or pathogen infection, the cell membrane is damaged, the permeability is increased, so that the electrolyte in the cell is extravasated, and the conductivity of plant cell leaching liquor is increased.

In this embodiment, the active nitrogen species (RNS) may be Nitric Oxide (NO), which may effectively improve stress resistance of plants; of course, the active nitrogen substance may also include nitrogen dioxide, nitrogen atoms, peroxynitrite (ONOO-) and other molecules or ions, and may be reasonably arranged as required.
In this embodiment, the preferred concentration of nitric oxide in the space where the food to be stored is placed is 1ppm-100ppm, too low a concentration may not be effective and too high a concentration may cause side effects to harm the plants.
Fig. 11 is a schematic view showing a specific example of the first electrode and the food storage position provided in the present embodiment, and as shown in fig. 11, the first electrode includes two electrodes, and one electrode is connected to the positive voltage during the positive half period of the output of the rectifying device, which is called a positive electrode; the other electrode is connected to the negative voltage during the negative half cycle of the rectifier output and is referred to as the negative electrode. 1) Placing plants such as green vegetables and fruits on the positive charge plate (contacting with the plants); 2) the negative charge does not need to contact vegetables and fruits (can be arranged according to the rule of 1.5 meters); 3) the positive and negative electrodes can work alternately or simultaneously.
In order to facilitate the switching between the high-voltage positive electric field and the high-voltage negative electric field, on the basis of the food preservation system, as shown in fig. 12, the food preservation system further includes: and the high-voltage electric field control device 7 is respectively connected with the rectifying device 5 and the electrode device 1 and is used for controlling the rectifying waveform output by the rectifying device 5. The rectifying device 5 can output three waveforms, as shown in fig. 13, the waveform (a) is a sine waveform, a sine electric field is generated, and balance between preservation and sterilization is achieved; the waveform (b) is a negative half-cycle waveform, and a negative electric field is generated, so that the preservation is facilitated; the waveform (c) is a positive half-cycle waveform, and a positive electric field is generated, so that bacteriostasis is facilitated. In this embodiment, the high-voltage electric field control device 7 may be an automatic control switch, i.e. the rectifying device is connected with the electrode device through a switch, and the opening and closing of the switch can be controlled by a single chip microcomputer. Other control devices in the prior art can be adopted by a person skilled in the art to realize the switching control of the high-voltage electric field according to the description of the embodiment.
