Postharvest quality in stone fruits is ultimately defined in terms of consumer satisfaction, and includes appearance, texture and flavor, and nutritional value and safety. These result from all decisions and practices beginning with site and cultivar selection, and extending through cultural practices and all stages of postharvest handling. The development of high quality fruit is influenced by...

Oxidative stress in fruits and vegetables can be detected either directly (as accumulations in reactive oxygen species, increases in lipid peroxidation products, enhanced membrane leakage, or accumulation of brown pigments) or indirectly (as changes in antioxidant components or antioxidant enzyme systems). How all of these measures of oxidative stress relate to each other and how they are assoc...

Food losses can occur during production, postharvest, and processing stages in the supply chain. With the onset of worldwide food shortages, interest in reducing postharvest losses in cassava has been increasing. In this research, the main goal was to evaluate biochemical changes and identify the metabolites involved in the deterioration of cassava roots. We found that high levels of ascorbic a...
