Role of Polyamines in Fruit Development, Ripening, Chilling Injury, Storage and Quality of Mango and Other Fruits: a Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mango is an important fruit crop of tropical and subtropical world. Being climacteric fruit it has short shelf life and susceptibility to low storage temperature limits its long term storage and distant marketing. Along with other endogenous plant growth substances polyamines have been involved in the development and ripening of mango fruit which ultimately affect its storage life and quality. The present article reviews the role of polyamines in fruit development, ripening, storage and quality of mango and other fruits.

Incidence of ripening and chilling injury on the oxidative activities and Fatty Acid compositions of the mitochondria from mango fruits.
The succinate oxidation capacities of mitochondria isolated from mango fruits (Mangifera indica L.) stored at 4, 8, 12, and 20 C were investigated during storage. In normally ripening fruits (at 12 and 20 C) the oxidative capacities increased during the first 10 days and then decreased slowly. At lower temperatures (4 and 8 C), the fruits showed chilling injury symptoms, after about 10 days of ...
متن کاملDiverse postharvest responses of tomato fruits at different maturity stages to hot water treatment
Sensitivity of tomato fruits to chilling injury limits its storage and marketability. This study investigated the effect of hot water treatment (HWT) on reducing the consequences of chilling injury (CI) with respect to quality attributes of tomatoes during storage. Tomatoes were harvested at three ripening stages: mature green, pink, and red; dipped in hot water at 45°C for 15 min; and stored a...
متن کاملMethyl jasmonate reduces chilling injury and maintains postharvest quality of mango fruit.
Exposure of mango (Mangifera indica cv. Tommy Atkins) fruit to methyl jasmonate (MJ) vapors (10(-)(4) M) for 24 h at 25 degrees C reduced chilling injury during subsequent storage for 21 days at 7 degrees C and after 5 days of shelf life at 20 degrees C. The chilling tolerance induced by MJ was positively correlated with the reduction in the percent ion leakage of mango tissue. The overall qual...
متن کاملEffect of nitric oxide on biochemical and antioxidant properties of pomegranate fruit cv. Shishe-kab during cold storage
Pomegranate is a subtropical fruit that is widely consumed as fresh fruit and juice, however, its postharvest life is limited mainly due to storage disorders. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of nitric oxide (NO) on antioxidant activity and quality attributes of pomegranate fruit. The fruits were dipped for two minutes into different NO concentrations (0, 30, 100, 300 or 1000 µ...
