Current research aimed at studying the effect of benzothiazole (BTH) on fruit quality and resistance against Penicillium italicum (P. italicum). Recently, a synthetically prepared novel BTH was introduced that elicits induction various diseases fruits. However, little reported disease postharvest navel orange fruit. In this study, 50 mg·L−1 significantly reduced decay rate fruits during 36 days...

While developing radio frequency heat treatments for dried fruits and nuts, we used a heating block system developed by Washington State University to identify the most heat-tolerant life stage of red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), and to determine its thermal death kinetics. Using a heating rate of 15 degrees C/min to approximate the rapid heating of radio frequency treatments, th...

This study investigates the potential of epiphytic bacteria isolated from citrus fruits to control green mold post-harvest disease caused by Penicillium digitatum in Thompson Navel sweet oranges north Iran. Twenty-three were and screened vitro against P. digitatum, 13 isolates with antagonistic activity selected for further studies. Isolates B15 (Bacillus sp.), P17 (Pseudomonas S13 (Streptomyce...

This work aimed to evaluate granulation incidence and severity quality parameters of ‘Monte Parnaso’ navel orange in different harvest collection dates. The 2018 2019 harvests were evaluated, the dates 0, 15, 30, 45 days after commercial collection. evaluated severity, fruit weight, longitudinal transversal diameters, peel thickness, juice content, soluble solids titratable acidity, SS/TA ratio...

Host plant water status is thought to influence dispersal of the xylophagous leafhopper Homalodisca vitripennis Germar, especially where plants are grown under high evaporative demand. Preference by adult H. vitripennis for plants grown under different water deficit and nitrogen form fertilization regimens was studied under laboratory conditions. Leafhopper abundance and ovipositional preferenc...

Boron (B) deficiency stress is frequently observed in citrus orchards and causes considerable loss of productivity and fruit quality. Carrizo citrange (Cc) has been reported as a rootstock more tolerant to B deficiency than Trifoliate orange (To). The 'Newhall' navel orange (Ns) performed better when grafted onto Cc (Ns/Cc) than when grafted onto To (Ns/To) under long-term B deficiency. The pre...
