Regulation of pericarp browning in cold-stored litchi fruit using methyl jasmonate
Journal of King Saud University - Science, 2021 Abstract Postharvest litchi fruit is highly perishable and vulnerable to pericarp browning (PB), which affects marketability. In this study, the effect of vacuum infiltrated methyl jasmonate (0, 1, or 2 mM) on the quality of fresh cold stored (7 ± 1 °C and RH 85–90%) litchi.

Application of Essential Oils for Maintaining Postharvest Quality of ‘Rongrien’ Rambutan Fruit
Agriculture, 2021 The postharvest quality of rambutan fruits (Nephelium lappaceum Linn.) is mainly influenced by dehydration, which causes browning of the peel and spinterns. This research investigated the effects of some essential oils—from citronella, clove, kaffir lime,

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.
