Creator:: Landis Fisk, Connie
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to determine the effects of harvest maturity, packaging, and storage conditions on subsequent fruit quality of Actinidia arguta ‘Ananasnaya’ and to investigate the use of edible coatings to improve fruit quality and storage life. The influences of harvest maturity (6.0, 8.7, 9.1, and 15.1%...

Abstract:: Several effects of xylem discontinuity in Pinot noir and Merlot grape berries were studied. There was a reduction in the amount of apoplastic dye (Eosin Y or azosulfamide) uptake through cut pedicels into soft versus firm berries, suggesting a reduction in maximal xylem flow at that time. Both greenhouse and...

Abstract:: Volatile compounds of eight pear varieties were isolated and identified by GC/MS. A total of 112 components were identified from headspace of intact fruits, including 47 compounds reported for the first time in pear. The volatile profiles of these pear varieties were characterized by esters, alcohols, hydrocarbons, aldehydes and ketones....

Creator:: Plotto, Anne
Abstract:: In apples, the rapid changes occurring in fruit metabolism when approaching maturity affect their quality at harvest and after storage. The interest in the newly introduced cultivars, 'Gala', 'Braeburn' and 'Fuji' has initiated the following study on maturity indices and storage in the conditions of the Pacific Northwest. 'Gala', 'Braeburn'...
