Effect of Putrescine, Gibberellic Acid and Calcium on Quality Characteristics and Maturity Delay of "desert Red" Peach Fruit Cultivar. A: Developmental Aspects and Physical Properties of the Fruit
Prolonging the marketing period of peach fruits in Egypt through introducing new cultivars, breaking dormancy early or delaying maturity of some cultivars by safe compounds would increase the growers' profits. This study was conducted during two successive seasons 2005 and 2006 by using "Desert Red" peach cultivar (Prunus persica L.) grafted on Nemaguard rootstock. Trees were grown at El-Noubar...
متن کاملThe Effects of Ca Applications on Peach Fruit Mineral Content and Quality
Late season peach cultivars are usually cold stored for a few weeks to extend the marketing season, but physiological disorders related to calcium deficiency are now emerging. To study the absorption of Ca by the peach fruit, adult trees of two late maturing cultivars: ‘Miraflores’ and ‘Jesca’ were treated with Ca applied in two different ways: either as foliar sprays of Ca water solutions, or ...

Climate/environment Rootstock/scion Planting design Pruning practices Pest management Irrigation Plant growth regulators Plant nutrition The goal for postharvest physiologists, whether they are working in basic or applied research, is to maximize the postharvest quality of horticultural commodities. Quality relates to several factors that can be commodity specific and mean different things to d...
متن کاملAn overview of preharvest factors influencing mango fruit growth, quality and postharvest behaviour
Mango, a tropical fruit of great economic importance, is generally harvested green and then commercialised after a period of storage. Unfortunately, the final quality of mango batches is highly heterogeneous, in fruit size as well as in gustatory quality and postharvest behaviour. A large amount of knowledge has been gathered on the effects of the maturity stage at harvest and postharvest condi...
متن کاملInfluence of Pre- and Postharvest Summer Pruning on the Growth, Yield, Fruit Quality, and Carbohydrate Content of Early Season Peach Cultivars
Winter and summer pruning are widely applied processes in all fruit trees, including in peach orchard management. This study was conducted to determine the effects of summer prunings (SP), as compared to winter pruning (WP), on shoot length, shoot diameter, trunk cross sectional area (TCSA) increment, fruit yield, fruit quality, and carbohydrate content of two early ripening peach cultivars ("E...
