Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePrediction of Days After Anthesis of Developing Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) Fruit from Blossom-End Changes in ColorTiznado-Hernández Martín Ernesto, Delia Moreno-Velázquez, Angel Javier Ojeda-Contreras, Andrés Ochoa-MezaThe development of mathematical models to predict the physiological status of a developing fruit can be a useful tool to reduce the variation in fruit response to postharvest treatments. The objective of this study was to develop a mathematical model to predict Days After Anthesis (DAA) in tomato fruit from changes in the blossom end color. Around 160 tomato flowers … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 8,105 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolygalacturonase and Pectin Methylesterase Activities of CaCl2 Treated Red-Fleshed Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) Harvested at Different MaturityY. B. Awang, S. H. Chuni, M. T.M. Mohamed et al.Fruits harvested at different maturity possess different biochemical constituents and physiological properties that make the fruits may react somewhat differently to the postharvest treatment. A study to examine the activity of Polygalacturonase (PG) and Pectin Methylesterase (PME) enzymes during storage in dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) harvested at 28 days (Index 3) and 34 days (Index 5) after anthesis and postharvest … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 23 Jul 2013 · 8,433 accessesView PDF Cite
