Aroma is considered a fundamental component of fruit flavor. Variations in the composition and content volatile organic compounds (VOCs) contribute to noticeable differences aromas. Litchi delicious tropical subtropical fruit, large number germplasm resources with unique aromas have emerged during past 2000 years cultivation. In this review, our aim collect, compare, integrate, summarize availa...

Numerous studies demonstrated that winter melons (Benincasa hispida) have a long storage life at 20°C without quality and flavor degradation in fruit. However, fruit for processing are frequently handled under refrigerated conditions or exposed to warehouse air conditioning. Therefore, this research aimed evaluate whether short high- low-temperature of fruit, prior processing, changes the nutri...

BACKGROUND The Chinese bayberry (Myrica rubra Sieb. and Zucc.) is a subtropical fruit native to China, with unique flavor, sweet and sour taste, and high nutrition and health values. The fruit is highly perishable and susceptible to mechanical injury, physiological deterioration and fungal decay once harvested. This study was to investigate the effect of hypobaric storage on the quality of Chin...

Breeding for a subjective goal such as flavor is challenging, as many blueberry cultivars are grown worldwide, and identifying breeding targets relating to blueberry flavor biochemistry that have a high degree of genetic control and low environmental variability are priorities. A variety of biochemical compounds and physical characters induce the sensory responses of taste, olfaction, and somat...

It is often speculated that the age related decline in taste and smell performance can add to the decreased food intake among elderly by causing a change in liking of food. Flavor enhancement (by adding a taste and/or an odor to enhance or intensify the flavor of the food) has been suggested to counteract for the diminished taste and smell performance in order to increase liking and subsequentl...

Grape glycosides are, in part, important aroma and flavor precursors. Their quantification may offer a means of determining the impact viticultural practices, such as leaf removal, on potential wine quality. Fruit zone removal Riesling Chardonnay grapevines grown at two sites for seasons was evaluated its influence total phenol-free grape harvest. Vines were trained to low bilateral cordon syst...

Fruit ripening is a complex process that involves a series of physiological and biochemical changes that ultimately influence fruit quality traits, such as color and flavor. Sugar metabolism is an important factor in ripening, and there is evidence that it influences various aspects of ripening, although the associated mechanism is not well understood. In this study, we identified and analyzed ...

iran, with a long history of apricot cultivation is one of the most important apricot producers in the world. centuries of sexual reproduction via seed, have developed many divergent variations of apricots in iran. however, unfortunately there is no comprehensive report available concerning its diversity and genetic make-up. in this study, 39 iranian apricot cultivars as well as accessions, nat...
