‘Sungem’ Nectarine

HortScience, 1987
Abstract ‘Sungem’ nectarine [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] (Fig. 1) was released to provide an early ripening nectarine for commercial markets. All nectarines released by the Univ. of Florida begin with the prefix “Sun”. ‘Sun-gem’ is expected to be successful for homeowners, consumer harvest, local markets, and commercial growers with large acreage.

Impact of Postharvest Handling on Preharvest Latent Infections Caused by Monilinia spp. in Nectarines

Journal of Fungi, 2020
Latent infections caused by Monilinia spp. in nectarines cause great economic losses since they are not detected and rejected at harvest and can appear at any time post-harvest, even at the consumer’s home. The effect of a pre-cooling chamber, water dump

Current and future global distribution of the peach twig borer, Anarsia lineatella Zeller (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 94-107, February 2026.
Biological invasions and climate change drive species redistribution, threatening biodiversity, agriculture, and public health. Species distribution modelling (Maxent algorithm) predicted Anarsia lineatella current and future global range, identifying risk areas in Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Americas under changing climate conditions.

Relationship between nondestructive firmness measurements and commercially important ripening fruit stages for peaches, nectarines and plums

, 2007
Fruit firmness measurement is a good way to monitor fruit softening and to predict bruising damage during harvest and postharvest handling. Ripening protocols traditionally utilize a destructive penetrometer-type fruit firmness measure to monitor ...

Transcriptomic analysis of fruit stored under cold conditions using controlled atmosphere in Prunus persica cv. ‘Red Pearl’

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Cold storage (CS) can induce a physiological disorder known as chilling injury (CI) in nectarine fruits. The main symptom is mealiness that is perceived as non-juicy fruit by consumers. Postharvest treatments such as controlled atmosphere (CA; a high CO2

Persimmon carotenoid extract rich in β‐cryptoxanthin improves glucose homeostasis and reduces liver damage in high‐fat‐diet‐induced type 2 diabetic and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease mice

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 2, Page 1299-1313, 30 January 2026.
Abstract Background Persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) byproducts are a remarkable source of bioactive compounds, particularly carotenoids. Several studies suggest that carotenoids have beneficial effects in prevention of a large number of diseases. This study aims to highlight the effects of a persimmon carotenoid extract (PSCE) rich in β‐cryptoxanthin

Epidemiology of Monilinia laxa, the causal agent of blossom blight in almond orchards within the Ebro Valley

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 228-240, January 2026.
Blossom blight caused by Monilinia laxa in almond orchards in the Ebro Valley. Early stages of mummified fruiting structures infected by M. laxa frequently adhered to branches. Later stages of mummified fruiting structures were predominantly on the ground.

Natural variations in MdBPM2/MdRGLG3‐MdNAC83 network controlling the quantitative segregation of apple fruit storability

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 169-190, January 2026.
During postharvest cold storage of apples, the NAC transcription factor MdNAC83 binds to the promoters and activates the expression of downstream genes and is regulated by E3 ligases, which promote its ubiquitination and degradation. Genetic variants in MdNAC83 and its downstream genes form a network to regulate apple fruit storability.

Essential Oils and Plant Extracts for Postharvest Control of Monilinia fructicola in Peaches: Direct Antifungal Activity and Defence Induction

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 174, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the antifungal potential of essential oils and plant extracts for the control of Monilinia fructicola, the causal agent of brown rot in peaches, under in vitro and postharvest conditions. Essential oils and cold aqueous, hot aqueous, and hydroalcoholic extracts of Allium sativum, Syzygium aromaticum, Origanum vulgare ...
