Postharvest treatments of fresh produce [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2014
Postharvest technologies have allowed horticultural industries to meet the global demands of local and large-scale production and intercontinental distribution of fresh produce that have high nutritional and sensory quality. Harvested products are metabolically active, undergoing ripening and senescence processes that must be controlled to prolong ...

Review of the effects of various pretreatment and drying techniques on the qualities of dried pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) arils

Technology in Horticulture, 2023
Drying inhibits the growth of microorganisms by reducing the amount of available moisture. This slows the process of food deterioration, extends its shelf life, and makes it easier to access food year round.

Discovery of non-climacteric and suppressed climacteric bud sport mutations originating from a climacteric Japanese plum cultivar (Prunus salicina Lindl.). [PDF]

, 2015
Japanese plums are classified as climacteric; however, some economically important cultivars selected in California produce very little ethylene and require long ripening both "on" and "off" the tree to reach eating-ripe firmness. To unravel the ripening

Transcriptional regulatory networks controlling woolliness in peach in response to preharvest gibberellin application and cold storage [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Postharvest fruit conservation relies on low temperatures and manipulations of hormone metabolism to maintain sensory properties. Peaches are susceptible to chilling injuries, such as ‘woolliness’ that is caused by juice loss leading to a ...
