Quality And Shelf Life

Shorter shelf life and faster deterioration of fruits after harvest are the major constraints with the peach production in the subtropical regions. Pre-harvest application of GA3 and chloride & nitrate of calcium were tried in a RBD experiment for enhancing peach fruit quality and reducing fruit deterioration during shelf life studies of five subtropical peach cultivars. At harvest fruit quality parameters viz. TSS, acidity, firmness etc. were influenced greatly by the treatments. Other physical properties of the fruit such as fruit weight, size and yield were not influenced much. Physiological weight loss during storage and the deterioration of other fruit characteristics were considerably lowered by calcium treatments. Foliar application of Calcium nitrate (1%) was found to be superior over calcium chloride (2%) for improving fruit quality and shelf life.

Quality And Shelf Life

Lychee is a well-known subtropical fruit, much appreciated for its attractive red peel and excellent taste, but the fruit is very prone to postharvest peel browning and decay. China is the world leader in both acreage and yield of lychee production. Extensive research has been conducted to extend the fruit quality and shelf life. The talk presents a general review of the current research on postharvest physiology and shelf life preservation technologies of lychee in China.
