EFFECT OF BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS DURING STORAGE OF FIG (Ficus carica L.)
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 13
Abstract
Fig is highly perishable subtropical fruit, hence it succumbs to high spoilage due to Bio- chemical changes takes place during the storage. The shelf life of fruit is these reduced at a faster rate. Post harvest treatment of fig with different gauges of polyethylene cover with or without ventilation resulted in extending shelf life of fig and biochemical changes like physiological loss in weight, total sugars, reducing sugars and no reducing sugars found Significant increase in all the treatments during the advancement of storage.
