This book was released on 2006 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of this project were to determine the effects of harvest maturity, packaging, and storage conditions on subsequent fruit quality of Actinidia arguta Ananasnaya and to investigate the use of edible coatings to improve fruit quality and storage life. The influences of harvest maturity (6.0, 8.7, 9.1, and 15.1% average soluble solids content (SSC)) and storage conditions (22±1 C and 45% RH, or 2 C and 88% RH for three weeks followed by a ripening period at 22±1 C and 45% RH) on the physicochemical, sensory, and nutritive qualities of Ananasnaya hardy kiwifruit were investigated. The effects of refrigeration depended largely on maturity of the fruit at harvest. Chroma values of refrigerated fruit ranged from 16.4-19.1 and were similar to vine-ripened fruit (15.1% SSC). Hue angles ranged from 75.4-97.5; the only significant (p
Download or read book Handbook of Fruit Set and Development written by Shaul. P Monselise and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different phases of fruit development and utilization have been treated in many textbooks, reviews, and a host of scientific and professional papers. This seems, however, to be the first attempt to bring together case histories of so many different fruits and to present a balanced account of the whole period from set to harvest. Postharvest physiology, which has been in the centre of the picture in many former books, is at the bored line of the subject matter of this book, and has not been fully covered, except in a few cases. For this reason, two separate chapters deal with physiological and pathological aspects of fruit life after harvest.
Download or read book Kiwifruit written by Annette C. Richardson and published by CABI. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kiwifruit is one of the few fruit crops that has been successfully introduced to the marketplace and for which commercial production in several countries has expanded rapidly over the last 50 years. Kiwifruit science and production has advanced significantly during this time, with multiple new green-, yellow- and red-fleshed cultivars being commercialized while moving into the era of genomics, sustainability, digital technology and automation. This book reviews the scientific and technical information published on kiwifruit, their biology and management. It provides a comprehensive reference on kiwifruit, including their history, genetic material, culture, physiology, pest and disease control, and fruit consumption. Particular attention is given to recent threats and opportunities, including environmental issues, the disease Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae, new genetics, new growing areas and technology advances. Contributions from a wide range of international specialists ensure coverage of key aspects of kiwifruit and their culture in different environments.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fruit are important sources of food that can contribute a large portion of the fibre, water and vitamins required for a healthy human diet. The process of fruit ripening is a critical phase in the development of fruit as it is this process that renders fruit attractive and palatable for consumption. A better understanding of the mechanisms that regulate fruit ripening is likely to enhance our ability to predict and/or control the ripening process in fruit. This thesis investigated the molecular control of fruit ripening in the non-model crop plant Actinidia chinensis cv. 'Hort16A' that produces climacteric fleshy fruit similar to tomato. This crop species has particular relevance to the New Zealand economy, being its largest horticultural industry. Results in this thesis show that, at the physiological level, the ripening associated attributes of pericarp colour change, sugar accumulation, and pericarp softening initiate at distinctly different points in Actinidia chinensis 'Hort16A' fruit. The progression of each of these ripening attributes also occurred in multiple phases and at different rates. Analysis of the expression of genes associated with the progression of each ripening attribute demonstrated that multiple genes are likely to be required for each attribute to occur. These genes displayed complex expression patterns during the ripening of this fruit indicating that complex regulatory networks are likely to be required to regulate ripening in this fruit. Developmental and tissue specific regulation was observed in some genes involved in the progression of ripening attributes. This demonstrates a further level of complexity of ripening that occurs in a spatial and temporal manner. Treatment of ethylene resulted in the enhanced progression of pericarp softening and sugar accumulation but not pericarp colour change. The expression of genes involved in the progression of each of these attributes however all showed significant changes in response to ethylene treatment. Interestingly ethylene biosynthesis was not observed during the on-vine ripening of Actinidia chinensis 'Hort16A' fruit but this fruit can respond to ethylene treatment. This observation suggests that Actinidia chinensis 'Hort16A' fruit may have evolved a mechanism that involves two ripening phases that target different vectors for seed dissemination. It is however also possible that this fruit may respond to ethylene in this manner to enhance the progression of ripening in unfavourable abiotic conditions, thus ensuring some seed dispersal is achieved each year. Two kiwifruit NOR-like (AcNOL1 and AcNOL3) genes were stably expressed in non-ripening mutant tomato fruit. The fruit of these transgenic lines subsequently displayed an increased progression of ripening compared to non-ripening mutant fruit. The progression of ripening in these fruit corresponded with complex changes to the expression of distinctly different genes at different points of ripening. This shows that AcNOL1 and AcNOL3 regulate different ripening related aspects when expressed in tomato fruit. Transient expression of AcNOL1 and AcNOL3 in kiwifruit resulted in increased biosynthesis of ethylene, a key positive regulator of ripening. This indicates that these genes both have roles in the progression of ripening in kiwifruit. AcNOL1 and AcNOL3 display different expression profiles at distinct stages of ripening suggesting that they are likely to differentially contribute to the regulation of ripening in kiwifruit.

Download or read book The Kiwifruit Genome written by Raffaele Testolin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-02 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the basic botanical features of kiwifruit and its wild relatives, reports on the steps that led to its genome sequencing, and discusses the results obtained with the assembly and annotation. The core chapters provide essential insights into the main gene families that characterize this species as a crop, including the genes controlling sugar and starch metabolism, pigment biosynthesis and degradation, the ascorbic-acid pathway, fruit softening and postharvest metabolism, allergens, and resistance to pests and diseases. The book offers a valuable reference guide for taxonomists, geneticists and horticulturists. Further, since information gained from the genome sequence is extraordinarily useful in assessing the breeding value of individuals based on whole-genome scans, it will especially benefit plant breeders. Accordingly, chapters are included that focus on gene introgression from wild relatives and genome-based breeding.
