“…Cut flowers/plants experience physiological changes and ethylene accumulation on removal from storage, and hence chemical treatments are employed to preserve quality (Jain, 2016) Inclusion of growth regulators such as cytokinin, gibberellins and auxin has been found to improve post-harvest quality of cut flowers (Faraji et al, 2011). An innovation thatutilised an electrochemically treated solution containing potassium chloride, hypochloric acid and dissolved oxygen, into which cut flower stems were inserted, improved their quality and vase life (Abdolahi et al, 2013). Anumber of chemical treatments have been used to improve cut Gladiolus quality parameters (Bhat and Sheikh, 2015), while a similar fate was accomplished in some ornamental plants treated with preservative solutions containing glycerol and surfactants (Dung et al, 2017).…”

Several biochemical and metabolic changes are associated with senescence of cut gladioli, particularly in relation to quality characteristics, including dynamism of carbohydrates. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pulsing and wet cold storage on the starch and sugar biomarkers on cut Gladiolus (Gladiolus grandiflorus L. cv. Fado) vase quality. Pulsing treatments of 600-ppm 8-hydroxyquinoline sulphate, plus 5% sucrose solution, versus distilled water, were administered prior to wet cold storage durations of 0 - 5 days, on the cut Gladiolus grown from corms. This was done in the open field at the Horticulture Research and Teaching Field, Egerton University in Kenya, during two successive seasons. There was a significant difference (P <0.01) in total soluble sugars (TSS) and total starch of spikes pulsed with 600 ppm 8 - HQS + 5% sucrose, compared with the control, during the third day in the vase life of the cut flowers. Prolonged vase life of cut spikes was associated with a decrease in total soluble sugars and increase in total starch, as influenced by pulsing and wet storage duration up to 4 days.

Context: Satureja (Lamiaceae) species are used as flavoring compounds in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries because of its sweetness and simple cultivation characteristics. They have traditionally been used as muscle pain relievers, tonic, and carminative agents to treat stomach and intestinal disorders such as cramps, nausea, indigestion, and diarrhea, due to their considerable phytochemical characteristics. Objective: This review evaluates some information published since 1989 on Satureja genus from a systematic perspective in terms of its pharmacological and phytochemical characteristics. Materials and methods: Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases were searched up to March 2014. ''Satureja'' was used as a research term without narrowing or limiting research elements. After obtaining all reports from database (a total number is about 637), the papers were carefully analyzed in order to find data related to the topic of this review. Results: In this review, 453 reports were used which were published between 1989 and 2014. The study was compiled into two sections (Pharmacology and Phytochemistry). In the pharmacology section, more than 50 different activities were studied. In the second section, in addition to other compounds and inorganic substances, volatiles, phenolic acids, and flavonoids were discussed. Discussion and conclusion: According to our contemporary information, Satureja species have been evaluated for their wide range of biological activities. However, a small part of these studies have been carried out on the active principles. Therefore, in the future, more studies should be carried out to identify responsible phytochemicals for the various activities.

“…Extensive works are carried out around the world in investigation of antimicrobial property of essential oils under in vitro condition (Viuda-martos et al 2007;Yahyazadeh et al 2008;Abdolahi et al 2010a) but the antifungal activity of essential oils or their constituents for elongation the shelf life of fruits and vegetables were reported in the literature (Ranasinghe et al 2005;Valero et al 2006;Lee et al 2007;Tripathi et al 2008). The antifungal activity of the essential oils of C. copticum, Foeniculumn vulgare and Carum carvi was evaluated in vitro and in vivo conditions against the growth of Alternaria alternata and Penicillium digitatum, two postharvest pathogens of tomato fruits (Abdolahi et al 2010b).…”

The antifungal activity of different concentrations of Thymus kotschyanus and Carum copticum essential oils (0, 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 µL/L) on mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea and Penicillium digitatum under in vitro condition were investigated. Also, the preservative property of various concentrations of these essential oils (0, 250 and 500 µL/L) to maintenance quality parameters of “Rish Baba” table grape were studied. Chemical compositions of the essential oils were also determined by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis. Major compounds found in essential oils from T. kotschyanus and C. copticum were carvacrol (28.54%) and thymol (63.18%), respectively. The results of in vitro assay showed that T. kotschyanus and C. copticum essential oils in 300–500 µL/L concentration completely inhibited the mycelial growth of B. cinerea and P. digitatum. Also, at the end of the storage period, all the applied concentration of essential oils reduced disease severity compared to control fruit. The application of essential oil did not affect the berry shrinkage and rachis browning. However, essential oil treatment showed high preservative effect on weight loss, appearance, flavor, berry browning, total soluble solids (TSS), titrable acidity (TA) and TSS/TA of treated fruits. Therefore, essential oils may be used as an alternative for the synthetic chemicals for control of postharvest phytopathogenic fungi, and in turn to fulfill consumer requirements for more natural and healthy fruits. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS Postharvest disease of perishable fruits such as table grape renders heavy losses during transit and storage. Use of chemical fungicides such as SO2 generator pads are basic means of controlling postharvest diseases of table grape. Public awareness about chemical residues in food and interest to use of organic crops intended search to find a new safe alternatives to synthetic fungicides. The main reason for examine the possibility use of essential oils are they plant origins, safe, no side‐effect and their acceptability for consumers. Consequently, recently the interest to use of essential oils to preserve of fruits and vegetables has increased. The goal of this research was to examine the possibility use of T. kotschyanus, C. copticum essential oils to maintain postharvest quality of table grapes.
