Comparative Study on Physicochemical and Nutritional Qualities of Kiwifruit Varieties

Xinyu Yuan et al.

Summary: Fourteen kiwifruit varieties of different species and flesh colors were selected to study their physicochemical and nutritional characteristics. The pectin content was significantly higher in green-fleshed kiwifruits, while red-fleshed kiwifruits had the highest total flavonoid content. The energy and carbohydrate contents of yellow-fleshed kiwifruits were significantly lower than those of red-fleshed kiwifruits. Among the 14 varieties, 'Huate', 'MHYX', 'Jinkui', and 'Xuxiang' were ranked as the top four highest-ranking kiwifruits. This study provides valuable information for quality improvement and processing.

Cell wall modification and lignin biosynthesis involved in disease resistance against Diaporthe citri in harvested pummelo fruit elicited by carvacrol

Chuying Chen et al.

Summary: CVR treatment effectively inhibits the growth of Diaporthe citri and controls the development of Phomopsis stem-end rot in harvested pummelo fruit. It delays peel softening and browning, increases cell wall components, and enhances lignin biosynthesis. By suppressing cell wall degrading enzymes and up-regulating lignin biosynthesis, CVR treatment enhances disease resistance in pummelo fruit against D. citri.

The role of essential oils in maintaining the postharvest quality and preservation of peach and other fruits

Zhaoxin Cao et al.

Summary: This paper reviews the research progress of essential oils in the storage and preservation of fruits, especially the application in peach, as well as the application in active packaging such as edible coatings, microcapsules, and electrospinning loading. Essential oil, as a natural antibacterial agent, has been proven to exhibit strong antibacterial activity, low toxicity, and environmental friendliness, making it an important alternative to chemical fungicides for preserving fruits.

The involvement of the phenylpropanoid and jasmonate pathways in methyl jasmonate-induced soft rot resistance in kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis)

Shucheng Li et al.

Summary: Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) enhances the resistance of kiwifruit to postharvest decay by regulating enzyme activity, metabolite content, and gene expression, thereby inhibiting the growth of the fungal pathogen Botryosphaeria dothidea.

Quality of 'Hayward' Kiwifruit in Prolonged Cold Storage as Affected by the Stage of Maturity at Harvest

Tal Goldberg et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the effect of 'Hayward' kiwifruit maturity at harvest on fruit quality during long-term storage, finding that fruit with higher maturity on the vine showed decreased softening rate and acidity decline during storage. Delaying harvest can improve fruit quality and prolong storage life.
