Abstract Sweet cherry ( Prunus avium L.) is one of the most widely produced and consumed stone fruit species in world Turkey. Due to this agricultural importance, breeding studies are carried out for various purposes. The main objective increase self-sufficiency quality worldwide. In study, we aimed determine relationship between cracking, which a serious problem quality, characteristics, morphological characteristics fruit, with genotypes local cultivars cracking resistance fruits. Annual temperature, relative humidity precipitation data, known be highly related ripening fruits until harvest, were also taken. Differences found weight, width, seed stem TA, pH, L*, a*, b*, hue, croma crack genotype cultivars.

Plastic covers protect fruits from cracking caused by pre-harvest rains in sweet cherry orchards; however, they can decrease the quality parameters of cherries, such as firmness, titratable acidity, color, and sugar content. This study evaluated impact a reflective ground film used for 21 or 34 DBH (days before harvest) commercial orchard (cv. Regina) grown under plastic cover southern Chile. Our showed that exposition trees to increased firmness total soluble solid (TSS) content at harvest, homogenizing concentration sugars along tree canopy. Additionally, using proportion greater than 32 mm upper canopy quantity mahogany-colored cherries lower canopy, compared un-exposed film. Concerning fruit condition defects, results reveal incidence both zones Furthermore, we found orange skin pitting decreased post-harvest exposed film, but depending on zones. Moreover, exhibited higher browning pedicel post-harvest. Finally, according our results, antioxidant activity DBH. Therefore, conclude films orchards improve homogenize maturity fruits; this practice negatively

Yellow pitahaya is a tropical fruit that has gained popularity in recent years. Natural elicitors are compounds can stimulate the resistance and quality of fruits. The objective this study was to evaluate effects natural elicitors, methyl salicylate (MeSa), jasmonate (JaMe), salicylic acid (SA) oxalic (OA) at concentrations 0.1 mM (MeSa JaMe) 5 (SA OA), applied yellow fruits under greenhouse conditions. After full blossom, four applications were made with frequency 15 days. At time harvest after storage, following variables evaluated: firmness (whole fruit), total soluble solids (TSS), acidity (TA), phenolics carotenoids (in pulp), while phenolics, carotenoids, macronutrients micronutrients determined peel. results showed MeSa advanced maturation, according higher TSS, lower TA than MeJa-treated fruits, for which delayed ripening process shown. All treatments induced polyphenolic concentration during storage. Regarding alternative use peel as by-product, application significantly increased content polyphenols, peel, especially MeSa, be used bioactive compound food industry.

Sweet cherry producers must deal with different climactic challenges annually, specifically the impact of spring frost and inherent risk fruit cracking. This susceptibility arises from simultaneous occurrence during bloom stage or sweet cracking at vulnerable maturity stages in trees persistent rainfall. Given change climatic patterns, implementation new strategies innovative approaches becomes imperative to alleviate potential damage these adversities. study aims explore—for first time—the effectiveness preharvest putrescine applications flowering ripening on-tree increase tolerance against adverse events throughout its development time harvest. In this context, foliar concentrations 1 10 mM were administered distinct cultivars, namely, ‘Prime Giant’ ‘Sweetheart’. Over course four growing seasons, our investigation focused on evaluating influence natural elicitor resilience flower buds period reducing selected cultivars. sense, overall malondialdehyde content exhibited a reduction treated putrescine, set experienced an across majority evaluated seasons. On other hand, incidence putrescine-treated cherries showed consistent all studied Our results indicate that treatments effectively significantly diminish cracking, thereby enhancing abiotic stress. Furthermore, we quality parameters harvest, including firmness, external color, total soluble solids, acidity. Generally, observed changes delayed as compared control batch remained unaffected. For reason, based emerges valuable strategy for adapting climate mitigating stress, potentially increasing production.

Sweet cherries are among consumers’ preferred fresh fruits, known for their attractive organoleptic properties and high nutritional value. Agronomical practices, which now shifting to more environmentally sustainable options, can influence several key quality traits of sweet cherries. In this context, reducing conventional agrochemicals increasing the application preharvest biostimulants has emerged as an innovative strategy. This approach not only enhance cherry production but also ensure economic environmental sustainability supply chain. Hence, work is aimed at studying effect two concentrations glycine betaine (GB) Ecklonia maxima-based (EM) biostimulants, combination, in cultivars cherry: early-maturing ‘Early Bigi’ late-maturing ‘Lapins’, both grafted onto SL-64 rootstock. Evaluated parameters included fruit weight dimensions, color, firmness, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), phenolic anthocyanin contents, sensory profile. Key findings highlight that, with a few exceptions, biostimulant treatments had positive impact on studied parameters, although responses varied between cultivars. For instance, size increased by 13.41% 47.20% ‘Lapins’. Additionally, reduced color values, coupled higher TSS/TA ratios, indicate advanced maturation, could allow earlier harvest. The content rose 56.88% 30.24% while levels surged 88.28% 36.10%, respectively. Fruit firmness improved following application. Sensory analysis further revealed enhancements descriptors such “overall aspect”, “firmness”, “cherry flavor”, underscoring beneficial effects these treatments. These combined results that or significantly improves offers benefits from commercial perspective chain chemical-based products replacing them ecofriendly substances enhancing fruit.
