Metabolite Changes during Postharvest Storage: Effects on Fruit Quality Traits

open access: yesMetabolites, 2020
Metabolic changes occurring in ripe or senescent fruits during postharvest storage lead to a general deterioration in quality attributes, including decreased flavor and ‘off-aroma’ compound generation. As a consequence, measures to reduce economic losses
