Integrated Multidimensional Evaluation of Postharvest Quality and Physiopathologies in Seasonal Tropical Fruits: Linking Physicochemical, Sensorial, and Economic Loss Parameters

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Tropical regions exhibit remarkable environmental variability, resulting in high biodiversity and numerous fruit species with considerable nutritional and commercial potential. Despite this richness, many tropical fruits remain underexplored, particularly regarding their postharvest quality, phytosanitary status, and consumer perception.

Proteomic and Metabolomic Profiling Reveals Peel- and Pulp-Specific Molecular Regulation During Fruit Development of Selenicereus megalanthus

Horticulturae
Fruit ripening involves coordinated metabolic and molecular changes that shape quality traits, yet tissue-specific regulation in Selenicereus megalanthus remains unclear. Fruit development in S. megalanthus was investigated through an integrated analysis
