Comparative Assessment of Postharvest Treatments for Extending Shelf Life of Two Banana Cultivars in Bangladesh

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Effect of different postharvest treatments on shelf life and quality of two banana cultivars (Amritasagar and Mehersagar) in Bangladesh. Among the evaluated treatments, potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in unperforated polythene packaging effectively delayed ripening, increased total sugars and total soluble solids, and significantly extended shelf life ...

Litsea cubeba Essential Oil Reduces Postharvest Blueberry Rot by Inducing Cell Membrane Damage and Reactive Oxygen Species Accumulation in Alternaria alternata

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Litsea cubeba essential oil (LCEO) reduces blueberry rot while maintaining quality. It disrupts the cellular structure and membranes of Alternaria alternata, causing solute leakage, while simultaneously inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) damage in the pathogen.
