“…According to Vieira et al (2009), the usual titratable acidity of commercial fruits in southern Brazil ranges from 0.20 to 0.41 g of malic acid per 100 g. Chagas et al (2012), compared apple cultivars in eastern São Paulo State and found the cultivar Princesa with 0.50 g of acid malic per 100 g, which was similar to that found in the present study.…”

“…According to Wu et al (2007), apple cultivars with SS/TA ratio lower than 20 are more suitable for industrial processing (juices and ciders), and those higher than 20 are considered sweet and suitable for fresh consumption. The cultivars studied presented values higher than 20 (sweet cultivars).…”

-The great solar radiation in the Brazilian semiarid region, combined with an adequate irrigation management, favors fruit production and quality of crops that were adapted to this region. The objective of this work was to evaluate the fruit quality of two apple cultivars grown in the Sub-Mid São Francisco River Valley under different irrigation water depths. A complete randomized block experimental design in a split-plot arrangement with five replications was used. The plots consisted of four irrigation water depths (ID) (60, 80, 100 and 120% of the reference evapotranspiration -ETo), the subplots consisted of two apple cultivars (C) (Julieta and Princesa) and the sub-subplots consisted of fruit positions in the tree canopies (FP) (east and west sides). The soluble solids content (SS), titratable acidity (TA), SS/TA ratio, pulp firmness (PF) and fresh weight (FW) of the fruits were evaluated. The factors evaluated showed no triple interaction between the evaluated factors, however, the SS and TA were significantly affected by them; the interaction between ID and C significantly affected the PF; the interaction between ID and FP significantly affected the PF, SS/TA ratio and FW; and the interaction between C and FP significantly affected the SS/TA ratio. The increase in water depth increased the fruit size of both cultivars, without compromising the post-harvest quality. The cultivar Princesa presented the best results regarding SS, TA, PF and FW, however, both cultivars had organoleptic characteristics within the recommended standards for commercialization. The fruits harvested on the west side presented better post-harvest quality.Keywords: Water regimen. Malus domestica Borkh. Post-harvest. QUALIDADE DOS FRUTOS DE MACIEIRAS IRRIGADAS NO SEMIÁRIDO NORDESTINORESUMO -A elevada radiação associada ao manejo adequado da irrigação no semiárido brasileiro favorece o aumento da produção e a qualidade dos frutos de culturas adaptadas a região. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a qualidade dos frutos de duas variedades de maçãs cultivadas na região do Vale Submédio do Rio São Francisco sobre diferentes lâminas de irrigação. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos ao acaso, com parcelas subsubdivididas, com cinco repetições, sendo as parcelas principais quatro lâminas de irrigação (60; 80; 100; e 120 % da evapotranspiração de referência -ETo), as subparcelas duas cultivares de maçã (Julieta e Princesa) e as subsubparcelas as posições da copa da planta (leste e oeste). Avaliou-se o teor de sólidos solúveis (SS), a acidez titulável (AT), a relação entre SS/AT, a firmeza de polpa (FP) e a massa de matéria fresca do fruto (MMFF). Não se observou interação tripla entre os fatores avaliados, mas houve um efeito significativo das características SS e AT, da interação entre lâminas e cultivares para FP, da interação entre lâminas e posição para FP, razão de SS/AT e MMFF e da interação entre cultivares e posição para relação SS/AT. O aumento da irrigação promoveu aumento do tamanho dos frutos, das duas cultivares, ...

-The objective of this work was to evaluate the tolerance of fruits of different banana cultivars to low temperature storages. Fruits of the cultivars Nanicão (AAA), Prata (AAB), Vitória (AAAB), Maçã (AAB) and Caipira (AAA) were used. Clusters of three fruits were kept in cold storage for 7, 14 and 21 days, with average temperature of 10.53±0.37°C and relative humidity of 85%. Subsequently, the clusters were transferred to temperatures of 22±0.39°C and evaluated for 16 days. The fruits of all cultivars remained green after 21 days of storage at 10.53±0.37°C. Fruits of the cultivar Nanicão did not completely ripened after transferred to the 22°C storage, when stored for 7 days at low temperature. These fruits were firmer, with green peel and low soluble solids and titratable acidity. The fruits of all cultivars complete the ripening when transferred to room temperature after 21 days of cold storage. Chilling injuries increased with cold storage time in all cultivars. The cultivars Nanicão, Caipira and Maçã had more symptoms of chilling injury, while Prata and Vitória were more tolerant to the cold storage (10.53°C) for up to 21 days, showing normal ripening after transferred to the 22±0.39°C storage.Keywords: Musa spp. Chilling injury.

TOLERÂNCIA AO FRIO DE FRUTOS DE DIFERENTES CULTIVARES DE BANANEIRASRESUMO -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a tolerância dos frutos de diferentes cultivares de bananeira a baixa temperatura de armazenamento. Foram utilizados frutos das bananas Nanicão (AAA), Prata (AAB), Vitória (AAAB), Maçã (AAB) e Caipira (AAA). Utilizaram-se buquês com três frutos, mantidos em câmara fria por 7, 14 e 21 dias, com temperatura média de 10,53±0,37°C e umidade relativa do ar de 85%. Posteriormente, os buquês foram transferidos para a temperatura de 22±0,39°C e avaliados por 16 dias. Os frutos dos cultivares estudados peraneceram verdes após 21 dias de armazenamento a 10,53±0,37°C. Frutos do Nanicão não completaram o amadurecimento após serem transferidos para a temperatura de 22°C, quando armazenados por 7 dias à baixa temperatura, apresentando frutos mais firmes, com casca verde, baixos teores de sólidos solúveis e acidez titulável. Após 21 dias de armazenamento refrigerado, os frutos de todos os cultivares completaram o amadurecimento, depois de transferidos para temperatura ambiente. Os danos por frio aumentaram com o avanço do tempo de armazenamento refrigerado, para todos os cultivares. Nanicão, Caipira e Maçã apresentaram sintomas mais evidentes de dano por frio. As bananas Prata e Vitória mostraram-se mais tolerantes ao armazenamento refrigerado na temperatura de 10,53°C por até 21 dias, exibindo amadurecimento normal após a transferência para a temperatura de 22°C.Palavras-chave: Musa spp. Injúria por frio.

“…Sensory evaluation A portion of the apple for which the above quality parameters were measured was subjected to sensory evaluation by semi-trained panel of judges including ten males and females each in the age group of 25-45 selected from within the organization during each interval of storage period (Verma and Joshi 2000). Semi-trained panel means the group of selected panel members who were instructed about the tasting procedure and 9-point Hedonic scale (Liked extremely = 9, Liked very much = 8, Liked moderately = 7, Liked slightly = 6, Neither liked nor disliked = 5, Disliked slightly = 4, Disliked moderately = 3, Disliked very much = 2, Disliked extremely = 1) before sensory evaluation.…”

Physico-chemical quality parameters of apple were measured during storage using standard techniques and fitted to model expressions for developing an overall quality index (I q ). Predicted I q was validated with the trends of sensory scores. Total Soluble Solids (TSS) and acidity varied from 13.2 to 12.3 ºBrix and 0.161 to 0.079%, respectively whereas, Hunter colour values L, a, b and yellowness index were 48.7-56.1, 11.0-19.4, 18.8-20.2 and 84.6-98.2, respectively. The gloss at 45 and 60º incidence angles, density and I q varied from 7.5 to 4.3 and 6.7 to 2.6 GU, 1.01 to 0.96 kg m −3 and 0.26 to 1.02, respectively. The variation in sensory overall quality scores with storage period was found to be in line with computed overall quality index. The I q thus, could be defined as the ratio of product of acidity and TSS to the mode of product of a and b Hunter colour values. The polynomial regression equations for I q with TSS, acidity, a, b, and storage period yielded the correlation coefficients of 0.8443, 0.9838, 0.7130, 0.7183 and 0.9665, respectively; which indicated that overall quality index could be predicted nondestructively using any one of these parameters during storage.
