Lipofuscin-Like Substance Involved in Pericarp Browning of Postharvest Litchi Fruit During Storage [PDF]

The Open Food Science Journal, 2011
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a subtropical fruit of high commercial value in international trade. However, litchi fruit after harvest can rapidly lose their bright red skin color and turn brown with increasing storage time at ambient temperature. Postharvest browning of litchi fruit is mainly attributed to the degradation of anthocyanins and the ...

Methyl jasmonate fumigation enhances crop yield and delays physiochemical quality changes by modulating the secondary metabolism in green bell pepper

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 55-72, 15 January 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The green bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), of the ‘Lamuyo’ type, is a highly valued vegetable owing to its excellent organoleptic and nutritional properties. However, these properties are subject to deterioration during postharvest storage, which in turn limits the shelf‐life of the pepper fruit.
