The fruit of six blackberry cultivars “Ningzhi 3,” “Arapaho,” “Kiowa,” “Hull,” “Shuofeng,” and “Triple Crown” were stored under different storage conditions 25°C (RT) and 4°C (LT). Compared to RT treatment, LT treatment‐restricted deterioration and nutritional loss, and maintained antioxidant capacity of samples. Among LT samples, color of “Ningzhi 3,” “Hull,” and “Shuofeng” changed fewer than other cultivars, and the decay rate of “Shuofeng” and weight loss of “Hull” were lower than others. At the end of LT, total soluble solid and soluble sugar content of “Arapaho,” soluble protein content of “Shuofeng” were the highest. During the storage period, “Arapaho,” “Hull”, and “Shuofeng” maintained higher antioxidant enzyme activity and lower hydrogen peroxide content. The storage stability of “Arapaho,” “Hull,” and “Shuofeng” was better than the other three blackberry cultivars because of their better postharvest quality. This study provides a comprehensive insight into the postharvest treatment to maintain the quality of blackberry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
