Combinatorial approaches for controlling pericarp browning in Litchi (Litchi chinensis) fruit [PDF]

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2015
The availability of fruit like litchi has been limited by variability in yield, alternate bearing, seasonal differences and most commonly post harvest problems. The litchi fruit has a very short shelf-life during which red color turns brown which greatly affects the appeal to consumer although not the unique flavor.

Involvement of CBF in the fine-tuning of litchi flowering time and cold and drought stresses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Litchi (Litchi chinensis) is an economically important fruit tree in southern China and is widely cultivated in subtropical regions. However, irregular flowering attributed to inadequate floral induction leads to a seriously fluctuating bearing.

Fruit cracking in litchi (Litchi chinensis): An overview

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2017
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.), an arillate fruit species of China origin, possessed a unique structure comprising thin and leathery pericarp that enclosed the aril as its edible part. Fruit cracking is a serious physiological disorder in litchi that occurs during its growth and development, and causes significant loss of economic yield.

Control of post-harvest pericarp browning of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn) [PDF]

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2010
Pericarp browning is the major post-harvest problem of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn) fruit, resulting in reduced commercial value of the fruit. Control of post-harvest pericarp browning of fruit using 9 different post-harvest treatments were studied. The treated fruits were packed in transparent perforated (0.2% ventilation) low density polythene bags

Biosynthesis of quebrachitol, a transportable photosynthate, in Litchi chinensis [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2017
Although methylated cyclitols constitute a major proportion of the carbohydrates in many plant species, their physiological roles and biosynthetic pathway are largely unknown. Quebrachitol (2-O-methyl-chiro-inositol) is one of the major methylated cyclitols in some plant species. In litchi, quebrachitol represents approximately 50% of soluble sugars in

Improving Decision‐Making in the Identification of Tephritidae Larvae at Import in the European Union and Key to Third Instar Larvae

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Tephritidae family, or true fruit flies, comprises approximately 250 species recognized as economically significant due to their capacity to infest commercial fruits. These pests pose serious threats to both food security and trade, and are considered quarantine pests in areas where they are not yet established. In the European Union (EU),

Soil-leaf nutrient relationships with fruit quality and yield of litchi (Litchi chinensis) in northern India

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
In litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonner.) orchards of northern India, imbalanced nutrient applications and poor soil health status are the major constraints for lower orchard efficiency and poor fruit productivity.

Dielectric properties of litchi fruit (Litchi chinensis Sonn) at microwave frequencies

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2020
The dielectric properties of litchi fruit were determined using the open-ended coaxial probe method. The measurements were performed in the frequency range from 0.5 to 20 GHz during 3 days of storage at room temperature (~  24 °C). The dielectric properties increased with storage time.
