to evaluate the inoculation effect of potassium releasing, phosphate solubilizing and nitrogen fixing bacteria on the fruit quality of tomato, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with 9 treatments and 3 replications has been conducted. in this experiment, tomato (super chief cv.) seedlings of the in the treasury cultivation with single and combined treatments of the potassiu...

this study was conducted during 2008-2009 to investigate the influence of different organic nutrient combinations on yields and quality of strawberry cv. kurdistan in iran. the experiment comprised of five organic nutrient treatment combinations including the recommended dose of n, p and k through chemical fertilizer as control. treatment n2 (manure+azotobacter+ woodash+phosphorus solubilizing ...

Resident fruit microflora has been the source of biocontrol agents for the control of postharvest decay of fruits and the active ingredient in commercialized biocontrol products. With the exception of grapes and apples, information on the resident microflora of other fruits is only fragmentary, but greater knowledge in this area can be very helpful in developing biocontrol strategies. We charac...

Abstract The technology that is commonly used to control postharvest pathogen attacks coating with synthetic chemicals, but this has an unfriendly impact on the environment and consumers. Coating A. vera L gel plant extracts a natural way extend shelf life maintain quality. research was focused finding composition of guava fruit . indica leaf extract provided physicochemical properties optimal ...

Guava is one of the most important commercial fruit crop in Bangladesh due to its high nutrient value, good taste and high health benefits. This study was conducted to investigate the flowering, fruiting behavior and nutritional quality of guava genotype suitable for coastal region of Bangladesh. Fifteen genotypes (PG 01 to PG 15) having satisfactory growth were selected for this study. One bra...

Fresh fruits have good flavor and high nutritional value, but in the postharvest stage they will age decay rapidly, so we need to find green fruit preservatives. And natural organic acids are promising preservatives due their safety effectiveness. The present work reviews recent applications of quality management discussed its potential biochemical mechanisms. This indicates that numerous effec...

selecting within local pomegranate accessions is the main method used to identify new cultivars. total of 76 pomegranate accessions from hatay, turkey, were collected and their morpho-pomological and chemical characteristics were determined. the results showed that there was significant diversity among the accessions in terms of fruit quality parameters. several accessions were notable for thei...
