ethylene affects the ripening of fruits and is naturally produced in most plant tissues. its production and accumulation during storage can cause serious damage to stored fruits such as black sweet cherries (cv: takdaneh mashhad). it affects shelf-life and can cause a marked increase in respiration rates, increasing ripening and senescence. in some commodities, accelerated aging and the initiat...

Pomegranate fruit is to rich in phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties can show difference the composition according cultivars, part of fruit, environmental conditions analysis method. Therefore, aim present study was analyse compare chemical from different parts Valenciana Wonderful pomegranate cultivars. The fruits were separated into aril, peel, membrane seeds manually analysed by com...

background and objectives: pomegranate, belonging to punicaceae family, is native of subtropical regions of iran and its neighborhood countries. iran has the richest germplasm resource of pomegranate and the first grade in cultivation area and production worldwide. physical and chemical properties of pomegranate cultivars vary in different developmental stages and have a large impact on the nut...

The study aimed on evaluating the feasibility of NIRS to predict sweetness and acidity of intact mango fruit in form of soluble solids content (SSC) and titratable acidity (TA) through calibration modeling. Diffuse reflectance spectra in NIR wavelength range of 1000 – 2500 nm were acquired for a total of 58 mango samples. PCR and PLSR were used to develop SCC or TA prediction models respectivel...

Objective: This study was performed to determine the effects of two girdling practices on yield and some pomological properties persimmon trees in 2019.
 Material Methods: The gridling were applied Hachia variety, common Çanakkale, as single girdling, double control. Girdling treatments after full blossom trees. Fruit variety determined. weight, fruit width, size, skin colour (L, a, b), pH...

Yields on 'Concord' grape (Vitis labrusca L.) increased as pruning severity was decreased until the 6th and last year of this study, at which time the yields tended to equalize between the 30 + 10, 50 + 10, and 70 + 10 pruning treatments. By the last year, vines pruned to the 70 + 10 level produced fruit of unacceptable quality. When the 3-node spurs were shoot-positioned, their productivity wa...

Tomato fruit is renowned for its high concentration of phyto-nutrients such as lycopene and carotenoids, overall contribution to nutrition and human health. The effect of antisense suppression of ethylene receptor genes LeETR1 and LeETR2 over the quality of tomato fruit was investigated in this paper. During the different stages of ripening, the fruit of antisense transgenic tomatoes of ale1 an...

Background: pH and total soluble solids (TSS) are important quality parameters of mangoes; they represent the acidity sweetness fruit, respectively. This study predicts TSS intact mangoes based on near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy using multi-predictor local polynomial regression (MLPR) modeling. Herein, prediction performance kernel partial least square (KPLSR), supp...
