Strawberry sanitization by peracetic acid washing and its effect on fruit quality

Improving growth, yield and fruit quality of strawberry by foliar and soil drench applications of humic acid

Organic compounds including seaweed extract were applied in organic production system and sustainable agriculture. One of these compounds is humic acid that was used widely in research and commercial programs. Humic acid is an organic acid obtained from humus and other natural resources with hormonal effects and improving nutrient absorption, increasing root and shoot biomass. In order to inves...

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...

Efficiency of Folic Acid in Improving Yield and Fruit Quality of Strawberry

In this research the effect of application of different levels of folic acid and time on some quality and agronomic characteristics of strawberry (cultivar Paros) was investigated. The plants were treated by folic acid with concentrations of 0, 20 and 40 mM at two stages (30 days after planting and first blooming) as a factorial experiment using a randomized complete block design with four repl...

Effects of superatmospheric oxygen on strawberry fruit quality and decay

The effects of elevated O2 alone or in combination with elevated CO2 atmospheres for postharvest decay control on strawberry fruit (Fragaria×ananassa Duch.) were assessed. In vitro and in vivo growth of Botrytis cinerea Pers.:Fr. and the effects on fruit quality were determined under eight atmospheres: air, 40, 60, 80, 90 and 100 kPa O2, 40 kPa O2+15 kPa CO2 and air+15 kPa CO2. The commercially...
