“…Fruit rmness is considered one of the most important features of apple fruit quality, which is largely in uenced by many factors before and after harvest, therefore, obtaining and maintaining apple fruit rmness from the garden to the consumer's hands is one of the issues. The main problem is faced by apple producers, and apples with rmness less than 4.5 (kg/cm2) are usually rejected by consumers, and therefore, this is the minimum level of rmness aCeptable for many cultivars 13 .…”

Apricot fruit is of great importance due to its high quality, and the possibility of exporting it from an economic point of view. In order to maintain the quality of apricots, in addition to observing the principles of horticulture, the issue of proper storage after harvesting and managing the product until the time of sale is inevitable. In this research, the effect of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate to increase yield of apricots of the late fruiting Noori cultivar during 45 days of storage at a temperature of 2 0C and a relative humidity of 85 to 95% was studied. For this purpose, an experiment was conducted with microwave radiation (control (0)180 and 360 W), storage time (15, 30 and45 days) and 3 potassium permanganate (control − 3 and 5 g) on apricot cv. Noori. Results showed that the appearance quality and taste of the fruit improved under the influence of microwave radiation. The TSS/TA ratio increased with increasing storage time, while the application of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate decreased the fruit maturity index. The use of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate reduced the rate of fruit rot. The use of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate treatments increased the firmness of the fruit tissue. The results of this research showed that the use of microwave radiation as a type of heat treatment and potassium permanganate can be introduced as an effective strategy in the technology after harvesting apricot fruits.

“…Conventional breeding methods, coupled with advanced genetic techniques, are being employed to cultivate varieties that can withstand higher temperatures, reduced water availability, and increased pest and disease pressures. For example, researchers in India have been working on developing heat-tolerant varieties of apples in regions like Himachal Pradesh, where rising temperatures are affecting traditional apple cultivation [31]. Biotechnology plays a crucial role in addressing climate change challenges in horticulture.…”

This review provides an exhaustive analysis of the impact of climate change on fruit yield and quality, with a specific focus on India's horticultural sector. It synthesizes current research findings, identifies gaps, and suggests future directions to understand and mitigate the effects of climate change on key fruit crops. Climate change, characterized by rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, and extreme weather events, poses significant challenges to fruit production. These challenges under three main sections: the direct and indirect effects of climate change on fruit yield, the influence of climate change on fruit quality, and the adaptations in modern horticultural practices. The direct effects include alterations in flowering and fruiting cycles and changes in pollination dynamics. Indirect effects comprise changes in soil quality and nutrient availability, along with water availability and irrigation challenges. These factors collectively lead to variations in fruit yield across different regions and crops. The review also discusses the impact of climate change on the nutritional content of fruits, such as changes in sugar, acid, vitamin levels, and secondary metabolites that affect flavour and health benefits. Physical and aesthetic changes, including modifications in size, color, texture, and shelf life, are also examined, highlighting their implications for marketability and consumer preference. Adaptation strategies in response to these challenges are crucial. Delves into breeding and genetic modification efforts aimed at developing climate-resilient fruit varieties and discusses the role of biotechnology in these adaptations. It also covers changes in agronomic practices, such as adjustments in planting dates and crop rotation, alongside water management and conservation techniques. The adoption of technological innovations like precision agriculture, monitoring systems, and controlled environment agriculture (CEA) is evaluated for their potential to enhance resilience in fruit production.
