This book was released on 1972 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the commercial ripening of bananas is to provide fruit which has not only a good shelf-life but also excellent appearance and eating quality, and to have it available when and where required. To achieve this, ripening must be carried out under carefully controlled conditions of temperature, humidity, and ethylene and carbon dioxide levels. Ethylene is necessary to initiate repening and to make fruit of variable maturity ripen evenly. Temperature is the main factor in successful ripening as it controls the speed of ripening and the shelf-life and also the eating quality and colour of the ripened fruit, while humidity affects colour, freshness, and carrying capacity. If the carbon dioxide produced by the fruit accumulates excessively in the room, ripening is slow. The carbon dioxide level can be kept low by ventilation with outside air when necessary.

Download or read book Banana Ripening written by Anthony Keith Thompson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The technology used to ripen bananas is affected by a wide range of factors, including the cultivar, growing conditions, harvesting method, and maturity at which the fruit are harvested and handled. Various post harvest treatments applied to fruit can also impact ripening. While many textbooks have been dedicated to Musa (bananas and plantains), none have focused exclusively on the ripening process. The commercial ripening of bananas and the chemical changes that occur thereby are considered here in detail. In developed, temperate countries where bananas are imported, successful ripening technologies have evolved. Most bananas, however, are marketed locally in the country where they are grown, and often the ripening technologies used have economic and health implications. This brief offers an in-depth discussion of not only the implications of these technologies, but also of alternative ripening methods and their commercial applications. For an understanding of both the chemical basis by which bananas ripen and the technologies used to control the process, look no further than this essential text.

Download or read book Handbook of Environmental Physiology of Fruit Crops written by Bruce Schaffer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1994-08-19 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exciting handbook is devoted solely to the effects of environmental variables on the physiology of the world's major fruit and nut crops. Its cosmopolitan scope includes chapters on tropical and sub-tropical species written by scientists from several continents. The influence of environmental factors, such as irradiance, temperature, water and salinity on plant physiology and on vegetative and reproductive growth, is comprehensively discussed for each crop. In addition to being a thorough textbook, the organization of this volume makes it an excellent reference tool. Each chapter focuses on a single crop, or a group of genetically or horticulturally related crop, and is appropriately divided into subsections that address individual environmental factors. Some chapters emphasize whole-plant physiology and plant growth and development, while other chapters feature theoretical aspects of plant physiology. Several chapters provide botanical background discussions to enhance understanding of the crop's response to its environment.
