Volume 10, Issue 2 , April 2023, , Pages 149-160

https://doi.org/10.22059/ijhst.2022.328720.490

Abstract
  Peach fruit (Prunus persica L.) was harvested at the stage of commercial harvest and was then treated with 0, 1, 2, 3 mM citric acid (CiA). A factorial model was planned on a completely randomized block design with three replications. Two factors were used in the experimental design, i.e. 4 storage durations ...  Read More

https://doi.org/10.22059/ijhst.2020.229309.183

Abstract
  Peach is a highly corrosive fruit with a short shelf life (less than 7 days at room temperature)susceptible to diseases, pathogens and physical damage. The storage or marketable life ofhorticultural crops can be extended by various treatments applied to them after and/or beforeharvesting. Fruits are ...  Read More

Volume 5, Issue 1 , June 2018, , Pages 31-42

https://doi.org/10.22059/ijhst.2018.253556.221

Abstract
  Apple is one of the most important fruits in temperate zones with a long post-harvest life during cold storage. A factorial experiment, in a randomized completely block design was used to investigate the preharvest application of Iron (0, 500 and 1000 mg Fe-EDDHA per tree) and nitrogen (0, 48 and 96 ...  Read More

https://doi.org/10.22059/ijhst.2018.210156.134

Abstract
      Different dates for apples fruit harvest (Malus domestica Borkh. Cv. Fuji) were studied to determine physiochemical changes during the storage. Fuji apples were harvested from 9 September till 23 October, at five different times and stored at 0±0.5 °C and 95% relative humidity ...  Read More
