Effects of pre-harvest aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG, 250 mg L–1) and zinc (0.3% ZnSO4) treatments... more Effects of pre-harvest aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG, 250 mg L–1) and zinc (0.3% ZnSO4) treatments on pre-harvest fruit drops, internal ethylene concentration (IEC), flesh firmness, color characteristics (L*, chroma and hue angle), soluble solids content (SSC), acidity, total phenolics, antioxidant activity, flesh and leaf micronutrients and macronutrients of ‘William’s Pride’ apples, were investigated in this study. AVG was sprayed 4 weeks before the anticipated harvest date and Zn was sprayed when the fruits reached the size of a walnut. As compared to the control, both the single AVG and zinc treatments significantly reduced the pre-harvest drops. However, combined AVG + Zinc treatments were found to be more effective in reducing the pre-harvest drops. At the last measurement date (15th of August), 60% fruit drop was measured in control, but 22% in AVG + Zinc treatment. AVG and AVG + Zinc treatments reduced ethylene synthesis. On the other hand, single zinc treatments stimulated e...

Experimental trees were treated with three different concentrations (150, 225 and 300 mg L) of AVG and 20 mg L NAA 4 weeks before anticipated harvest date. Results which were obtained revealed that NAA and AVG treatments significantly decreased pre-harvest drops compared to control treatment. AVG treatments significantly delayed peel color development. The fruit weight was significantly reduced by 225 and 300 mg L AVG concentration at 1, 8 and 15 October harvest date. AVG treatments were more effective in retaining of flesh firmness. But NAA treatment significantly reduced both flesh firmness and fruit removal force at anticipated harvest. AVG treatments significantly delayed starch degradation, and reduced soluble solids content. 225 and 300 mg L AVG-treated fruits exhibited higher tit...

Zinc (Zn) application did not cause any significant differences on fruit yield, average fruit weight and the average geometric diameter of pear varieties. But the fruit flesh hardness of Akca variety was significantly reduced (P<0,05) with the zinc application. While zinc application reduced the titratable acidity (TA) from 0,33 g/100 g to 0,15 g/100 g of Akca variety, TA of Deveci variety significantly increased from 0,22 g/100 g to 0,28 g/100 g. Zinc application significantly (P<0,05) reduced the total phenolics of Akca and Deveci varieties. Similarly, the zinc application significantly (P<0,01) reduced the total antioxidant activity of Akca variety according to the radical scavenging ...

The fruit without and with stalk were stored at 0 ± 0.5°C and 90 ± 5% RH during 45 days. Also, fruit were placed inside modified atmosphere packing (MAP). The presence of the stalk of the fruit was effective in reducing quality losses in storage. The weight loss, decay ratio and vitamin C loss of fruit that were stored without stalk were higher. There was no change in soluble solids content and acidity ratio depending on fruit stalk presence. Total phenolic, total flavonoid, and antioxidant activity values were lower in fruit without stalk at the end of the storage. With the MAP application, the weight loss and decay rate of the fruit decreased in storage. In addition, fruit firmness, acidity, and vitamin C losses were lower in MAP-treated fruit.

In the study 100 and 200 mg L-1 AVG doses, and 2240 mg L-1 MeJA dose were used. Compared to control treatment, the fruit weight significantly increased with 100 mg L-1 AVG and MeJA treatment. Geometric diameter significantly increased with only MeJA treatment, whereas, flesh firmness significantly decreased with only MeJA treatment. The flesh / stone ratio increased with 100 mg L-1 AVG and MeJA treatment. L* and hue angle with 200 mg L-1 L AVG, chroma value with 100 mg L-1 AVG, and a* value with both AVG treatment significantly increased. The soluble solids concentration and pH value significantly decreased with MeJA treatment, whereas, the titratable acidity increased with MeJA. Total phenolic compounds and total anthocyanin significantly decreased with 100 mg L-1 AVG and MeJA treatment. The total antioxidant capacity significantly decreased with only MeJA treatment.

Compared to the control, it was determined that fruit set on the trees applied with AVG increased from 97.5% to 130.4%. While the soluble solids content was significantly decreased, significant differences in fruit quality (fruit weight, fruit sizes, flesh firmness, titratable acidity, ripening index and color characteristics) were not observed between control and AVG treatments. There was significant difference between AVG rates with regard to soluble solids content. The lowest SSC value was obtained from the 500 mg L1 AVG treatment

The cornelian cherry fruit (Cornus mas L.) were used as the plant materials in this study. Weight loss of MAP-treated fruit was lower than the untreated. At harvest and end of the storage, the greatest respiration and ethylene production rates were measured from M‑1. MAP-treated fruit were maintained firmness and had lower decay. At the end of the storage, the greatest soluble solids and acidity were obtained from M‑2. Also, vitamin C contents of M‑1+MAP were greater than M‑1, M‑2 and M‑2+MAP. At harvest and on 15th, 30th and 45th day of the storage, anthocyanin of M‑2 was greater than M‑1. At the last two periods of the storage, flavonoid contents of MAP-treated fruit were greater than the untreated. During the storage, M‑2+MAP had greater phenolic contents than the other.

Fruit weight, thickness and length of Ma × Ma 14 and SL 64 was higher than the GiselA 5 and GiselA 6. Firmness of GiselA 6 was lower than the other rootstocks (Ma × Ma 14, GiselA 5 and SL 64). The chroma value of GiselA 5 was greater than the other rootstocks, whereas the hue angle of SL 64 was lower than the other rootstocks. While the lowest SSC and acidity was obtained in GiselA 5, the highest vitamin C was determined in Ma × Ma 14. Total phenolics and total flavonoids, thus antioxidant activity of GiselA 6 and SL 64 rootstocks was higher than Ma × Ma 14 and GiselA 5 rootstocks. Catechin was the major phenolic acid in ‘0900 Ziraat’ sweet cherry fruit. GiselA 6 had higher catechin and 4‑hydroxybenzoic acid content than the other rootstocks. As a result, it was revealed that sweet cherry rootstocks were effective on bioactive compounds and fruit quality characteristics.

Fruit weight, thickness and length of Ma × Ma 14 and SL 64 was higher than the GiselA 5 and GiselA 6. Firmness of GiselA 6 was lower than the other rootstocks (Ma × Ma 14, GiselA 5 and SL 64). The chroma value of GiselA 5 was greater than the other rootstocks, whereas the hue angle of SL 64 was lower than the other rootstocks. While the lowest SSC and acidity was obtained in GiselA 5, the highest vitamin C was determined in Ma × Ma 14. Total phenolics and total flavonoids, thus antioxidant activity of GiselA 6 and SL 64 rootstocks was higher than Ma × Ma 14 and GiselA 5 rootstocks. Catechin was the major phenolic acid in ‘0900 Ziraat’ sweet cherry fruit. GiselA 6 had higher catechin and 4‑hydroxybenzoic acid content than the other rootstocks. As a result, it was revealed that sweet cherry rootstocks were effective on bioactive compounds and fruit quality characteristics.

In the study, it was determined that the ratio of the split fruit was 80%; the blank fruit ratio was 8%; nut weight was 0.93 g; kernel weight was 0.50 g and kernel ratio was 53.8%. As a result of analyses, it was assessed that the fruit consists of 19.39% protein, 3.74% moisture, 2.38% ash, 53.30% fat, 7182.45 mg/kg potassium, 4046.79 mg/kg phosphorus, 1592.96 mg/kg calcium, 974.35 mg/kg magnesium, 16.14 mg/kg iron, 4.42 mg/kg manganese, 11.38 mg/kg copper and 27.05 mg/kg zinc. It was determined that the total phenolic content was 1989.8 mg GAE kg–1 dw, the total flavonoid content was 363.0 mg QE kg–1 dw; DPPH was 30.9 mmol TE kg–1 dw; FRAP was 36.2 mmol TE kg–1 dw.
