methyl bromide for use in strawberry production. By year’s end, many of the pessimistic predictions about the California strawberry industry’s future had not come to pass. Consumer costs had not increased to cover expected higher production costs (e.g., Carpenter et al. 2000; Norman 2005), nor had production substantially moved to Mexico, which, per Montreal Protocol rules, initially was grante...

This study aims to determine the effect of ethylene gas contained in strawberries (Fragaria L.) on tall stems green bean plants (Vigna radiata L.). In this method used is experimental research. provides 3 different treatments beans. Treatment 1 was as a control, 2 and 1:5 strawberries. The results show growth stems.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a highly attractive plant host to Lygus spp. and is used as a trap crop in California organic strawberries to influence the dispersion and dispersal of these pests, particularly Lygus hesperus Knight. The abundance and distribution of Lygus spp. nymphs between two trap crops separated by 50 strawberry rows was analyzed in 2008 and 2010. Nymphs demonstrated a bimo...

BACKGROUND Sale of organic foods is one of the fastest growing market segments within the global food industry. People often buy organic food because they believe organic farms produce more nutritious and better tasting food from healthier soils. Here we tested if there are significant differences in fruit and soil quality from 13 pairs of commercial organic and conventional strawberry agroecos...

Strawberries are a popular food. However, the growth and reproduction of microorganisms on surface strawberries change their quality may cause food poisoning. We compared effects solid lipid nanoparticles containing cinnamaldehyde (SLN-CA) unencapsulated freshness stored for seven days. The impacts SLN-CA at different concentrations strawberry firmness, weight loss, rate fruit rot, sensory were...

White Chilean strawberries (Fragaria chiloensis) are non-climacteric fruits, with an exotic color and aroma. In order to discover genes involved in the development of these fruits, we identified a fragment of a gene encoding a late embryogenesis abundant domain protein, FcLDP1, that was expressed in early stages of fruit development, particularly in receptacles. Hormones play key roles in regul...

The removal of fenitrothion (FT) pesticide residues from vegetables by immersion in ozone-microbubbled solution was demonstrated. FT-treated lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and strawberries were immersed in ozone-microbubbled, ozone-millibubbled, and dechlorinated water. After that the percentage of residual FT in the vegetables was determined. Residual FT was efficiently removed from lettuce by imme...

The effects of mulching films on the profiles volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from two strawberry cultivars, namely Elide and Sabrina, were evaluated by headspace solid-phase micro-extraction coupled to gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-MS). Strawberries grown biodegradable films, named N5 N18, in comparison black polyethylene (PE). PCA models, separately performed VOCs dataset...

The storage characteristics of three remontant strawberry cultivars San Andreas®, Albion® and Murano® were studied in 2018–2020. short-term conditions (7 days) strawberries used the study significantly affected fruit quality indicators. highest stored was provided by controlled atmosphere (CA) conditions, as evidenced typically firmness lowest natural loss weight. modified packaging (MAP) obtai...

Strawberry fruit is a nonclimacteric and one of the most consumed berries in world. It characterized by high levels vitamin C, folate, E, β-carotene, phenolic constituents as well asanthocyanins that are strictly related to health benefits. Strawberries highly perishable with very short postharvest life due their susceptibility mechanical injury, rapid texture softening, physiological disorders...
