Effects of glyoxylic acid on metabolism and ripening of ‘Rocha’ pears treated w...

The application of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) is widely used to extend the storage life of climacteric fruits, such as ‘Rocha’ pears. However, the suppression of ethylene’s action by 1-MCP often results in excessive ripening delay, compromising fruit quality and consumer acceptance. In this study, we investigated the potential of glyoxylic acid (GLA) to counteract the effects of 1-MCP and promote ripening. To...

Omega-3 and conjugated fatty acids impact on human microbiota modulation using ...

Background& aims: Gut microbiota has been gaining increasing attention and itsimportant role in the maintenance of a general good health condition is alreadyestablished. The potential of gut microbiota modulation through diet is animportant research focus to be considered. Lipids, as omega-3 fatty acids, arewell known for their beneficial role on organs and corresponding diseases.However, their impact on gut mi...

Recovery of ripening capacity in 'Rocha' pears treated with 1-MCP through the a...

Storing 'Rocha' pear treated with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) in controlled atmosphere is a common commercial strategy to extend pear storage time and prevent postharvest disorders. However, this strategy represents a challenge to the fruit industry because 1-MCP treatment obstructs the normal fruit ripening, potentially affecting the quality to consumers. To explore possible mechanisms to reactivate ripening,...

Estratégias de recuperação do amadurecimento da pera ‘Rocha’ tratada com 1-MCP ...

A pera ‘Rocha’ (Pyrus communis ‘Rocha’) do Oeste DOP é uma variedade portuguesa. Com o aumento da capacidade produtiva e das exportações, surgiu a necessidade de adotar estratégias de armazenamento que permitam a disponibilidade deste fruto durante cerca de 10 meses. Em combinação com a refrigeração e atmosfera controlada, a aplicação do 1-MCP tem sido uma das técnicas mais usadas para prolongar o armazenamento...

Assessing the potential of a sustainable bean leaf extract with abscisic acid i...

Introduction: Rocha pear (Pyrus communis L. cv Rocha) is a Portuguese cultivar stored with 1-MCP in controlled atmosphere to extend storage life and prevent postharvest issues. However, 1-MCP obstructs the normal ripening, impacting pear quality for consumers. Several strategies have been applied to reboot the ripening of pear under 1-MCP effect, such as the application of higher temperatures, exogenous ethylen...

Relationship between minerals and physicochemical parameters with fruit quality...

Aims: At the same location, variability among orchards may be high, which is reflected in fruit quality, and it may be associated mainly with growers’ practices. This study aimed to identify physicochemical variability within pears (Pyrus communis L. cv 'Rocha') from three orchards from the same location and under the same climate conditions and correlate it with mineral composition. Methods: Fruits from three ...

'Rocha' pear mineral composition relation with quality traits

ß-Farnesene exogenous application as a novel damage induction model to fast exp...

Since the prohibition of diphenylamine, replacement strategies have been needed for long-term disorder prevention, namely superficial scald (SC), in fruit. However, as this disorder only appears after months under cold storage, the assessment of effective strategies to prevent this disorder requires long periods. To tackle this challenge, we report in this paper a rapid and reliable system to induce symptoms, s...
