Effects of exogenous polyamine and ultrasound treatment to improve peach storability
Peach (Prunus persica [L.] Batsch) is a perishable product and its storage period may be extended by using different postharvest methods. For this purpose, peaches harvested at the commercial ripening stage were treated with individual and combined effects of putrescine (1 mM) and...

For this purpose, peaches harvested at the commercial ripening stage were treated with individual and combined effects of putrescine (1 mM) and ultrasonic treatment (32 kHz for 10 min); postharvest storage quality of peach fruit was evaluated during storage at 0-1 °C for 28 d.

Peach storability could be extended with a combined putrescine and ultrasound treatment because it delays the ripening processes. |
