Contribution of genomics to postharvest biology
Purpose of review: This review aims at presenting the actual and potential contribution of genomics to the understanding of the fruit ripening process and to the genetic improvement of fruit quality and storability. Findings: The advent of high throughput technologies for the sequencing of mRNAs and genomic DNA has sped up the study of gene expression and the decoding of the genome of fruit spe...
متن کاملPostharvest Biology and Technology of Cut Flowers and Potted Plants
The relatively brief postharvest life of most cut flowers and potted flowering plants can be extended by a range of technologies. Studies have shown that vase life is negatively correlated with respiration after harvest, so prompt cooling to the lowest safe storage temperature is a key to long-distance transport of these perishable crops. Forced air cooling is the method of choice for cut flowe...
متن کاملPostharvest heat treatments
Postharvest heat treatments are being used for disinfestation and disinfection of an increasing variety of crops, including flowers, fruits and vegetables. This review focuses on the effects of heat on the commodity and its postharvest quality. The effects of a postharvest heat treatment on aspects of ripening and development of thermotolerance is discussed. Ethylene production, respiration, so...

3. DECAY PREDICTION. Unfortunately, decay prediction models for stone fruit have not been developed yet. A possible method of disease prediction might consist of prior to commercial harvest placing fruit of more advanced maturity into a plastic bag with wet paper to induce decay development. If decay develops rapidly, this may suggest that some lots of fruit receive additional preharvest fungic...

A. R. Collins explained that damage to DNA was the originating event in the process of carcinogenesis. “The damage can be caused by environmental or endogenous (produced within the body) processes, and oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen molecules released during cellular respiration is thought to make a significant contribution.
