Kirazda Hasatta ve Hasat Sonrası Depolamada Meyve Çatlaması ve Meyve Kalitesi Üzerine Anti-Transpirant Sprey Uygulamalarının Etkisi

Abstract

This study was designed to confirm the efficacy of anti-transpirant sprays on reducing fruit cracking in cherry, and to evaluate the impact on fruit quality at harvest and during post-harvest storage. In the study, it was observed that there were differences in the rate of natural cracking depending on the amount of precipitation, but there were inconsistencies in the differences. In some trials, the amount of precipitation has no effect on the rate of cracking, but generally the increase in the amount of precipitation has increased the rate of cracking. It has been determined that there is a significant reduction in cracking rate due to spray applications. Sprays consistently had minimal effect on fruit quality overall. Assessments of fruit post-harvest highlighted that all fruit, treated and untreated, exhibited similar behaviour during storage.

Effect of preharvest biofilm application regimes on cracking and fruit quality traits in ‘0900 Ziraat’ sweet cherry cultivar

“…Transpiration inhibitors such as Parka can result in adverse affects on the chemical composition of fruit by limiting gas exchange [ 34 ]. In contrast to the findings of this study, Measham et al [ 26 ] reported a reduction in SSC following the application of biofilm in sweet cherry in the United State, Australia, and Türkiye. Similarly, Aglar et al [ 39 ] reported a reduction in SSC rates in fruit treated with a biofilm, but no significant differences in TA rates.…”

“…Consequently, biofilm application may adversely affect fruit size, potentially due to influence of coating materials on osmotic potential. Previous research has demonstrated that biofilm application does not affect fruit size in sweet cherry [ 26 ].…”

“…Postharvest calcium applications in sweet cherries have been shown to reduce disorders such as fruit rot and spot formation, while maintaining fruit quality [ 25 ]. Biofilm formulations have shown efficacy in reducing water uptake, enhancing skin elasticity, and decreasing fruit cracking rates in sweet cherry [ 26 ]. However, the majority of existing studies have employed single-spray applications at a 1% concentration, with a paucity of research exploring into application regimens.…”

Maviyemişin (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) Meyve Kalite Özellikleri Üzerine Biyofilm Uygulama Rejimlerinin Etkisi

“…Edible biofilm treatments are an agricultural technology used to reduce the effects of diseases and pests on fruits and vegetables (Güneş, 2020), retard fruit cracking (Ozturk et al, 2018) and delay fruit quality losses during postharvest cold storage and shelf life (Fakhouri et al, 2012;Karakaya et al, 2020). In many studies conducted (Castro & Paulin, 2012;Han et al, 2014;Aglar et al, 2017;Measham et al, 2020), it has been stated that edible biofilms are based on the tasks they undertake to maintain and increase fruit quality. In our study, the significant effect of Parka, an edible natural biofilm, on fruit mass was observed in the commercial harvest.…”

“…Again, Ozturk et al, (2018) reported that pre-harvest biofilm and gibberellic acid treatments had no effect on fruit mass and width, but had a positive effect on length in jujube fruits. Measham et al (2020) stated that biofilm treatments positively affect width in a study conducted in sweet cherry.…”
