“…This also in a good agreement with results reported in Ref. [16], wherein reduced mass loss of 'Fuyu' persimmon fruits was found to be associated with reduced respiration rate under controlled atmosphere treatment. In the current study however, the four CA combinations led to significantly low respiration rates from (2.2ml -1 .kg -1 .h -1 ) at regular atmosphere to (<0.5ml -1 .kg -1 .h -1 ) for the four CA treatments.…”

Libyan 'Hurra' soft dates at 'Khalal' (Balah) stage were stored at 1º C and four controlled atmosphere (CA) treatments; O 2 -CO 2 percentages named as CA1 (7.33-4.23), CA2 (10.75-5.95), CA3 (12.08-3.38), and CA4 (15.05-2.70). CA treatments were compared with Regular Atmosphere (RA) (21-0.03) in storage duration. Quality related attributes such as mass loss, color, fruit firmness, Total Soluble Solids (TSS) and respiration rate were also measured at the start and the end of the storage duration. The four CA treatments led to extending fruit storability up to 23 weeks, compared with RA treatment which lasted for 7 weeks. Mass losses were about 5, 5, 6 and 8% for CA1 to CA4 treatments, respectively, while mass loss in RA treatment reached 38%. Color, firmness, TSS were all significantly lower than those measured at the start of the experiment, yet their ranges were in good agreement with values reported in the literature and fell within acceptable ranges. CA treatments also affected respiration, its mean rate was (<0.5ml -1 .kg -1 .h -1 ), compared with (2.2ml -1 .kg -1 .h -1 ) measured at RA. 

Growth regulators are used in the production of apples worldwide, especially to extend the harvest period and maintain postharvest quality. This study aimed to investigate the effects of applying aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) in isolation as well as in combination with other growth regulators and postharvest techniques on the harvest quality and storage potential of 'Brookfield' apples (Malus domestica), a 'Gala' strain. Fruit receiving AVG only had the highest starch content and the highest titratable acidity at harvest. After 8 months of storage, the AVG + 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene) and AVG + ABS (ethylene absorption) conserved higher flesh firmness than to all the other treatments. Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) application induced ACC oxidase enzyme activity at harvest, but not after storage. AVG application, with or without the aid of another technique, did not decrease the red skin color of 'Brookfield' apples. Low mealiness and a high healthy fruit percentage was obtained when the fruits were submitted to pre-harvest AVG application combined with NAA, 1-MCP and ABS. Internal carbon dioxide had an inverse correlation with the quantity of healthy fruit and was directly correlated with mealiness.Keywords: Malus domestica, postharvest quality, skin color, ethephon, naphthaleneacetic acid IntroductionThe application of growth regulators is necessary either to advance or to delay the fruit harvest in the field, due to the short period that fruit remains naturally at the correct maturation stage. Besides the short harvest period, another problem is that the harvest is carried out manually and requires a lot of time and manual labor. Thus, growth regulators are frequently used in the orchards.The main growth regulator applied in the field is aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) which is used to delay the harvest in order to avoid pre-harvest fruit drop (McFadyen et al., 2012;Yildiz et al., 2012). AVG blinds the active site of ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) synthase enzyme and inhibits ethylene production and maturation events initiated by this plant hormone (Yu and Yang, 1979;Huai et al., 2001). Despite the benefits promoted by AVG application, it decreases the red skin color of 'Gala' apples (Malus domestica) (Steffens et al., 2006). However, this reduction of red skin color has not yet been proven in 'Gala' mutants.Another growth regulator used extensively is ethephon, mainly to advance the fruit harvest. Its application allows for an early harvest of the fruit, and also increases the red color of fruit skin Steffens et al., 2006;Ban et al., 2007). However, ethephon application may decrease organoleptic quality and decrease the storage potential of fruit after harvest, especially in terms of declines in flesh firmness (Steffens et al., 2006;Ban et al., 2007). As well as the application of ethephon, naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) is also used during apple production. Its application reduces pre-harvest fruit drop in apples (Yuan and Carbaugh, 2007; Unrath et al., 2009), oranges (Zur and Goren, 1977) ...

“…ML occurs mainly due to transpiration and, at a lower intensity, due to respiration; however, in this case, most of the ML is related to respiration, because of the high RH (98 ± 1%) inside the CA chamber (Maguire et al 2000). Brackmann et al (2014) found that transpiration is the main responsible for ML in 'Fuyu' persimmons, stored with 95% of RH, which represents about 76% of all ML, and the remaining 24% are due to carbon losses by respiration rate.…”

AbstrAct:The aim of this work was to compare the storage potential of 'Guarani' and 'Tupy' blackberries in controlled atmosphere (CA) and thereafter to determinate the best CA storage conditions for 'Tupy' blackberries. Two experiments were carried out. In the first one, 'Guarani' and 'Tupy' blackberries were stored in CA condition (10 kPa O 2 + 15 kPa CO 2 ). We found that 'Tupy' blackberry has the best storage potential. Therefore, in the second experiment, several CA conditions were evaluated for 'Tupy' blackberries storage, In CA with 10 kPa O 2 + 15 kPa CO 2 , the juice was lighter (high L), but differed significantly only from those fruit of CS. The best CA condition for 'Tupy' blackberries storage is 5 kPa O 2 with 15 kPa CO 2 .
