The Effect of Combination of Hot Water With Some Postharvest Treatments on Quality and Storage Life of 'Satsuma' Mandarin

Effects of rootstocks on storage performance of Nova mandarins

“…Similarly, Gürgen et al (1995) reported that the lowest weight loss occurred in fruit from the Marsh Seedless grapefruit cultivar grafted on Troyer citrange during storage. Consistent with our results, fungal decay increased during storage in mandarins (Pekmezci, 1984;Kaşka, 1992, 1994;Gül, 1996;D' Aquino et al, 1997;Pekmezci et al, 1997;Schirra and D'Hallewin, 1997;Ragone, 1999;Şen, 2004;Şen and Karaçalı, 2005;Hong et al, 2007;Özkaya, 2007;Özdemir et al, 2005, 2008Karaşahin et al, 2014) at different temperatures (Ragone, 1999;Özdemir et al, 2007, 2016Obenland et al, 2011) and with different rootstocks (Özdemir et al, 2016). Similarly, Akpınar (1990) reported that the impact of rootstocks on the incidence of fungal decay was not statistically significant during cold storage in fruit from Valencia and Washington Navel orange cultivars.…”

“…Similarly, Özdemir et al (2016) reported that fruit from the Fremont mandarin cultivar grafted on Carrizo citrange had higher juice content than fruit grafted on sour orange during storage. The decrease in juice content during storage was reported in previous studies on mandarin (Pekmezci, 1984;Kaşka, 1992, 1994;Gül, 1996;Pekmezci et al, 1997;Agabbio et al, 1999;Ragone, 1999;Şen, 2004;Şen and Karaçalı, 2005;Özdemir et al, 2005, 2007, 2008Özkaya, 2007;Ladaniya, 2011). Similarly, Gürgen et al (1995) reported that the highest juice content occurred in fruit from the Marsh Seedless grapefruit cultivar grafted on Troyer citrange during storage.…”

“…Hydrolysis of cell wall constituents could also possibly contribute to the increase in degrees Brix (Burns, 1990). It has been reported in previous studies that the TSS content of mandarins decreased during storage (Pekmezci, 1984;Kaşka, 1992, 1994;Gül, 1996;Pekmezci et al, 1997;Ragone, 1999;Şen, 2004;Şen and Karaçalı, 2005;Salvador et al, 2006;Özdemir et al, 2005, 2007, 2008Özkaya, 2007;Ladaniya, 2011;Karaşahin et al, 2014). Unlike our findings, Obenland et al (2011) reported that TSS content increased during 7 weeks of storage in Owari and W. Murcott mandarins.…”

“…Similarly, Özdemir et al (2016) reported that physiological disorders were higher in the mandarin fruit from the Fremont mandarin cultivar grafted on Carrizo citrange than in fruit from Fremont mandarin grafted on sour orange during storage. It is known that similar physiological disorders, in the form of blackening on the fruit rind surface, increased during storage in many studies on mandarin (Pekmezci, 1984;Kaşka, 1992, 1994;Gül, 1996;D' Aquino et al, 1997;Pekmezci et al, 1997;Ragone, 1999;Şen, 2004;Salvador et al, 2006;Özdemir et al, 2005, 2007, 2008Özkaya, 2007).…”

“…According to our findings, weight loss in the Nova mandarins at 6 °C was above these limits during storage. However, our data on weight loss are in agreement with Agabbio et al (1985) in Tardivi di Ciaculli mandarins; Ağar and Kaşka (1992), Gül (1996), Dündar and Göçer (2001), Özdemir et al (2007), and Özkaya (2007) in Minneola tangelo; Pekmezci (1984), Pekmezci et al (1997), and Ağar and Kaşka (1994) in Clemantine mandarins; Agabbio et al (1999) in Malvasio mandarins; Pekmezci (1984), Ağar and Kaşka (1994), Şen (2004), and Şen and Karaçalı (2005) in 'Satsuma' mandarins; Gonzales-Aguilar et al (1997) andD' Aquino et al (2005) in Fortune mandarins; D' Aquino et al (1997), Ragone (1999), Salvador et al (2006), Özdemir et al (2008), and Karaşahin et al (2014) in Nova mandarins; Özkaya (2007) and Özdemir et al (2008) in Robinson mandarins; and Özdemir et al (2005, 2008, 2016) in Fremont mandarins.…”
