چکیده
The nutritional quality of many fruits and vegetables is regulated by pre-harvest management factors that can be manipulated to attain desired standards. In this study, the impact seed nanopriming on phytochemical composition watermelon was studied. Seeds two varieties namely: River Side (diploid) Maxima (triploid) treated with nanomaterials (silver nanoparticle turmeric nanoemulsion) along untreated seeds were grown in five locations over seasons. Physico-chemical properties profiles assessed after mature harvested stored at 23 °C for 0, 10, 20 d. Key physico-chemical characteristics impacted storage included fruit weight, rind thickness, pH, soluble solid content. Similarly, levels health-promoting compounds such as carotenoids, l-citrulline, total ascorbic acid maintained and/or enhanced watermelons 10 d compared harvest. However, l-citrulline (10.40 g/kg) (57.52 significantly reduced (8.6 19.09 g/kg, respectively) regardless treatment location (p < 0.05) trend similar Maxima. Combined analysis across all demonstrated non-significant effect among control nano-treated watermelons. These observations suggest priming does not have any detrimental fruit's consumer’s health.
