Efficacy of Nitric Oxide Fumigation for Controlling Codling Moth in Apples
Nitric oxide (NO) fumigation under ultralow oxygen (ULO) conditions was studied for its efficacy in controlling codling moth and effects on postharvest quality of apples. NO fumigation was effective against eggs and larvae of different sizes on artificial diet in 48 h treatments. Small larvae were more susceptible to nitric oxide than other stages at 0.5% NO concentration. There were no signifi...
متن کاملPostharvest treatment to control codling moth in fresh apples using water assisted radio frequency heating
Apples destined for export to Japan and South Korea are currently disinfested for codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), using methyl bromide fumigation. Restrictions and limitations imposed on the uses of methyl bromide have increased interest in developing alternative non-chemical quarantine treatments. It is imperative that the treatment is effective against codling mot...
متن کاملConsumer evaluation and quality measurement of fresh-cut slices of ‘Fuji,’ ‘Golden Delicious,’ ‘GoldRush,’ and ‘Granny Smith’ apples
We compared the eating quality of a new apple cultivar, ‘GoldRush,’ with ‘Golden Delicious’ (one of its parents), ‘Fuji,’ and ‘Granny Smith’ (the latter two often used for fresh-cut apple slices). We also compared a commercial with an in-house processing treatment, NatureSeal for apples and Produce Quality and Safety Laboratory (PQSL), respectively. Intact apples that had been stored for about ...
متن کاملShort anaerobiosis period prior to cold storage alleviates bitter pit and superficial scald in Granny Smith apples.
BACKGROUND Californian Granny Smith apples are very susceptible to bitter pit (BP) and superficial scald symptoms that develop during cold storage. The main preventive means are diphenylamine dipping and/or gaseous application of the ethylene inhibitor 1-methylcylclopropene (1-MCP), which is effective against superficial scald but not against BP. This study investigated the efficacy of a non-ch...
متن کاملCombination of sodium chlorite and calcium propionate reduces enzymatic browning and microbial population of fresh-cut "Granny Smith" apples.
Tissue browning and microbial growth are the main concerns associated with fresh-cut apples. In this study, effects of sodium chlorite (SC) and calcium propionate (CP), individually and combined, on quality and microbial population of apple slices were investigated. "Granny Smith" apple slices, dipped for 5 min in CP solutions at 0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2% (w/v) either alone or in combination with 0....
