Effect of salicylic acid treatment on quality characteristics of sweet cherry fruit in during storage
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 10
Abstract
The purpose of this work was to estimate shelf-life and to study the behavior of sweet cherry kept at 4°C in a normal atmosphere. The effects of postharvest salicylic acid applications on shelf-life and quality attributes of sweet cherry ((Prunus avium L.) on cold storage was determined. The experiment was started in season 2013-2014 and fruit firmness, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), and ascorbic acid content (Vitamin C) were measured. The fruits were immersed in four salicylic acid concentrations (0, 2,4 and 6mM). Results showed that SA treatment the storage period hasn’t a significant effect on TSS, firmness, vitamine C and TA of fruits.
