“…Segovia-Bravo et al (2011) reported that unripe table olives had a high fruit removal force (FRF) and bruised easily. Similarly, Aslantas et al (2016) indicated that the FDF/W ratio of sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L. cv. 'Kütahya') decreased as the fruit maturity increased.…”

ÖZETThis study was conducted to determine the effects of nuts per cluster (NPC) and fruit stem lengths (FSL) on the fruit detachment force/husky hazelnut fruit weight (FDF/HFW) ratio in a hazelnut cultivar (Yomra cv.) at the different maturity times of fruit ripening (MTFR). In total, 63 hazelnut limbs allocated randomly into 21 experimental groups in a 37 factorial arrangements to evaluate the effect of maturity times of fruit ripening (MTFR), NPC and MTFRNPC interaction on FSL, the fruit detachment force (FDF), husky fruit weight and FDF to W ratio. Three different maturity times of fruit ripening were determined for measurement the FSL, fruit detachment forces and husky hazelnut weights. The first maturity time was chosen as August 28 th which is indicating the approximately half of the matured hazelnuts (immediately at beginning of maturity, no delay, IH). The second maturity time (September 7 th ) includes the term which nearly all the hazelnuts were matured (10 d delay, 10DM). The natural fruit dropping time (September 15 th ) was evaluated as third maturity time (18 d delay, 18DM). NPC were classified as single, double, triple, four, five, six and seven nuts per cluster. The FDF of IH were higher (P=0.016) than that of 18DM, while the FDF to W ratio of IH was higher (P<0.001) than that of 10DM and 18DM. The increase in NPC was increased dramatically the FDF and HFW (P<0.001), but decreased the FDF to W ratio. The seven nuts per husky had higher FDF and HFW values compared to other NPC, whereas the single nut per cluster had lower the FDF and HFW values, and higher values the FDF to HFW ratio compared to triple, four, five and six nuts per cluster. The relationships between the NPC or FSL and other studied variables were significant. In conclusion, to delay the MTFR decreased the FDF and the increase in NPC improved the FDF and HFW and as a result decreased the FDF to W ratio in hazelnut Yomra cv. fruit detachment force, husky fruit weight, maturity time of fruit ripening

“…Similar results were reported by Jie et al (2009). When maize on a plant ripen, abscission of the fruits helps to disperse the seeds (Aslantas, Angin, Boydas, Ozkan, & Kara, 2016). Yilmaz and Gokduman (2020) reported that stress in the picking force of sour cherry was decreased with increasing the harvesting time.…”

The aim of this study was to determine various physical, mechanical, and pedicel strengths of 28 maize cultivars, with initial moisture content ranging between 19.24 to 36.64% (w.b.). These properties are such as slenderness ratio of maize ear, dimensions, density and 100–seed weight of kernels, picking force of kernel pedicel from cob (pedicel strength). The range of the slenderness ratio of maize ear was 24.91–36.99%. The range of weight for kernel and ear were 176.68–300.09 g, 141.78–229.22 g, respectively. In terms of the sphericity of kernels which ranges between 0.62 and 0.77 depending on the cultivars. When the kernel moisture in the range of 19.24–22.50%, the range of required force for remove one kernel from the cob is 4.71–7.94 N. When the kernel moisture is greater than 22.50%, the maximum force required is 28.50 N. The force required to remove kernels from the cob along the axial direction is greater than that at the radial direction. The knowledge of these parameters is important for the development of new threshing equipment and for reducing the losses that occurred in maize production. Practical Applications Maize is one of the most versatile cereal crops of the world but has a wide application in many industries. The determination of the physical and mechanical properties of maize ear, kernel, and pedicel will provide the reference to design the process of threshing equipment, postharvest machinery, and so forth, in the processing and manufacturing industries.

“…Empirical and destructive methods and indices for determining ripeness are widely used by fruit producers and processors. Such quality indicators include detachment and tissue firmness [ 9 ], color [ 10 ], dry matter (DM), water-soluble solids (SSC), titratable acid (TA) and phenolic content [ 11 ].…”

Determining and applying ‘good’ postharvest and quality control practices for otherwise highly sensitive fruits, such as sour cherry, is critical, as they serve as excellent media for a wide variety of microbial contaminants. The objective of this research was to report two series of experiments on the modified atmosphere storage (MAP) of sour cherries (Prunus cerasus L. var. Kántorjánosi, Újfehértói fürtös). Firstly, the significant effect of different washing pre-treatments on various quality indices was examined (i.e., headspace gas composition, weight loss, decay rate, color, firmness, soluble solid content, total plate count) in MAP-packed fruits. Subsequently, the applicability of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrics was investigated to detect the effect of various storage conditions (packed as control or MAP, stored at 3 or 5 °C) on sour cherries of different perceived ripeness. Significant differences were found for oxygen concentration when two perforations were applied on the packages of ‘Kántorjánosi’ (p < 0.01); weight loss when ‘Kánorjánosi’ (p < 0.001) and ‘Újfehértói fürtös’ (p < 0.01) were packed in MAP; SSC when ‘Újfehértói fürtös’ samples were ozone-treated (p < 0.05); and total plate count when ‘Kántorjánosi’ samples were ozone-treated (p < 0.01). The difference spectra reflected the high variability in the samples, and the detectable effects of different packaging. Based on the investigations with the soft independent modelling of class analogies (SIMCA), different packaging and storage resulted in significant differences in most of the cases even on the first storage day, which in many cases increased by the end of storage. The soft independent modelling of class analogies proved to be suitable for classification with apparent error rates between 0 and 0.5 during prediction regardless of ripeness. The research findings suggest the further correlation of NIR spectroscopic and reference parameters to support postharvest handling and fast quality control.
