Fruit have a variety of vitamins and has the most vitamin C, and so we can know the status of the fruit to the loss of the vitamin C. There are a lot of factors that the loss of the vitamin C, but it is highly dependent on temperature. Therefore, monitoring temperature variability during transport and storage is very important. In this paper, we propose the fruit state monitoring system using t...

background & aim: strawberry (fragaria vesca l.) is a plant belonging to the rosaceae family with medicinal properties, including antioxidant activity. the present study aimed at investigating the antioxidant properties of strawberry. experimental method: to examine the antioxidant effect, fruit extracts at two phonological stages of growth (ripe and unripe strawberry) were prepared. in add...

Although a great deal of progress has been made toward understanding the role of abscisic acid (ABA) in fruit ripening, many components in the ABA signalling pathway remain to be elucidated. Here, a strawberry gene homologous to the Arabidopsis gene ABI1, named FaABI1, was isolated and characterized. The 1641bp cDNA includes an intact open reading frame that encodes a deduced protein of 546 ami...

  Abstract An investigation was undertaken to ascertain the influence of hydro-alcoholic solutions on plant growth as well as quality attributes of strawberry fruits. The mother plants of strawberry (Fragaria ananasa cv. Gaviota) were subjected to various aqueous solutions of ethanol (15, 30%), methanol (15, 30%) and the mixture of ethanol + methanol (15 or 30%) plus the control (water only) as...

During the harvest season of two consecutive years, five strawberry cultivars ('Arosa', 'Elsanta', 'Marmolada', 'Miss' and 'Raurica'), grown in the continental part of the Republic of Croatia, were examined. Strawberry fruits quality was evaluated by individual phenol compounds, individual anthocyanins and fruit color. Fruits were harvested in three different periods. Analyzed strawberry cultiv...
