In order to improve the process management of table grape packaging, its performance should be evaluated. However, literature on evaluation indicators is scarce. To address this research gap, we propose a method for development packaging units, which are characterized by labor-intensive and highly seasonal production processes in agro-economic sector. The stages include following: contextualizi...

Introduction An understanding of the seasonal uptake and partitioning of mineral nutrients of grapevines is essential in order to time fertilizer applications. Over the last three decades, several important studies were conducted to determine seasonal nutrition demands of field-grown grapevines and to quantify the partitioning of mineral nutrients (Christensen 1980, Conradie, 1981, Peacock, 198...

This study investigates the low mechanization level of grape picking, and problems associated with difficult location picking points in three-dimensional space. A method for rapidly locating table grapes based on an infrared tube was proposed this paper. Firstly, Otsu algorithm maximum connected domain were used to obtain image target grape, which realized fast recognition segmentation two-dime...

ABSTRACT- Agricultural extension agents should provide dry land producers with appropriate education to make them more interested in learning about water use optimization. Therefore, it is recommended to accompany education with art. In this regard, a study, using the randomized experimental research design, was carried out among dry land grape producers in Herayjan village, Southwest Iran, usi...

INTRODUCTION The first grape juice known to be processed in the United States was produced by Dr. Thomas B. Welch, a New Jersey dentist, in 1869 with the newly developed pasteurization process. Assisted by his wife and their 17-year-old son, Charles, he extracted juice from 18 kg (40 lb) of grapes (Vitis labrusca L.). They filtered and bottled the juice and pasteurized it in hot water to kill t...

Table grape is a non-climacteric fruit, very sensitive to water loss and gray mold during postharvest handling storage. The aim of this work was evaluate the effects modified atmosphere packaging chitosan treatment on quality sensorial parameters minimally processed cv. ‘Italia’ table cold storage (14 days at 5 °C) shelf-life (7 14 plus 20 °C), reproducing retail sales condition. Our data showe...

RNA-guided genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas9 CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 (CRISPR-associated protein 9) system has been applied successfully in several plant species. However, to date, there are few reports on the use of any of the current genome editing approaches in grape-an important fruit crop with a large market not only for table grapes but al...
