1. Quality changes of acerola fruit harvested at different maturity stages and exposed to external ethylene
ABSTRACT Although acerola (Malpighia emarginata D.C.) has been suggested to be a climacteric fruit, little is known about its sensitivity to exogenous ethylene. The objective of the study was to evaluate the quality changes of acerola fruit at two harvest maturity stages in response to external ethylene application. ‘Flor Branca’ and ‘Junko’ acerolas

2. Agronomic trait selection and pre-germinative treatments in passion fruit hybrid
ABSTRACT Seed biometry and dormancy overcoming methods should be considered in the passion fruit production chain, in the seedling production stage, because of the different characteristics that condition the seedlings. The objective of this work was to identify and correlate the main biometric characteristics between seeds and seedlings and to select the be

3. FUZZY MODELING FOR RAPID COOLING OF TABLE GRAPES IN DIFFERENT PLASTIC FILM BAGS
ABSTRACT Rapid cooling is necessary to remove heat from fruit; however, it directly affects the water loss of grapes under certain conditions. Fuzzy logic is an important theory for analyzing results as it simplifies the assimilation of the phenomena through refined adjustments, allowing the prediction of the weight loss of fruits in relation to rapid coolin

4. Chilling requirement of four peach cultivars estimated by changes in flower bud weights
ABSTRACT The adaptation of temperate fruit crops is a challenge being increased by the global warming. Chilling requirement is a key factor for adaptation. The objective of this study was to estimate the chilling requirement of peach cultivars BRS Bonão, Esmeralda, Granada and Eragil, using the Tabuenca test. Chilling accumulation was computed using four di

5. Evaluation of granulation and quality parameters of Monte Parnaso late navel orange from South Brazil
ABSTRACT This work aimed to evaluate granulation incidence and severity and quality parameters of ‘Monte Parnaso’ navel orange in different harvest and collection dates. The 2018 and 2019 harvests were evaluated, and the collection dates of 0, 15, 30, and 45 days after commercial collection. The evaluated parameters were granulation incidence and severit

6. Ethephon as a potential tool to manage alternate bearing of ‘Fuji’ apple trees
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of different rates of ethephon on return bloom and yield, and fruit quality of ‘Fuji’ apple trees. The experiment was performed during the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 growing seasons. Eighteen-year-old Fuji Standard apple trees grafted on M.9 were sprayed with different rates of ethephon (300

7. Morphological characterization of fruits, endocarp, seed and seedlings of cajá-manga (Spondias dulcis)
ABSTRACT The Cerrado biome has several species that can generate income, and the cajá-manga is one of these native species with great potential but with scarce information about its morphological characterization. Thus, this work aimed to characterize the fruit, endocarp, seeds, and seedlings of cajá-manga morphologically. The fruits were evaluated by the

8. Antibacterial activity of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/ε-polylysine packaging films and the effect on longan fruit
Abstract Biodegradable and antimicrobial films via combing ε-polylysine (ε-PL) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a promising material for food packaging. We prepared the ε-PL/ PVA films with the ε-PL content of 0%, 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% (wt., relative to PVA) by casting method and their physical and chemical properties were characterized. SEM indicated the surf

9. Yield and morphological attributes of bell pepper fruits under biological fertilizers and application times
ABSTRACT Bell pepper (Capsicum annuum) is one of the most consumed vegetables around the world. Balanced fertilization is essential for growing this vegetable. The objective of this study was to evaluate the yield and morphological attributes of bell pepper under doses and times of application of biological fertilizers. Two experiments were carried out with

10. Effects of organic liquid fertilizers on biological activities and fruit productivity in open-field cherry tomato
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of liquid fertilizers (LF) with farm-derived renewable resources on biological activities and chemical attributes of the soil and fruit in an open-field tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum var. cerasiforme) experiment conducted in South Korea in the 2019 growing season. The LF treatments included bone+fish meal (BF), fis

11. Anti-obesity and hepatoprotective effects in obese rats fed diets supplemented with fruit purees
Abstract In this work, the effect of the intake of a low-fat diet supplemented with a fruit puree (guava-strawberry, guava-blackberry, guava-soursop or guava-passion fruit) by obese rats on reduction of body weight, lipid profile, and liver enzyme activity was evaluated. The rats (n=6 for each treatment) were induced to obesity with a high-fat diet for 4 wee

12. Sensory attributes and Lipid oxidation of smoked lamb sausage formulated with passion fruit meal, potassium chloride and calcium chloride
Abstract This study evaluated the sensory attributes and lipid peroxidation of smoked lamb sausage prepared with passion fruit meal, potassium chloride and calcium chloride. The samples were produced and smoked at Instituto Federal do Espírito Santo, where they were kept vacuum packed and frozen until laboratory analysis. The formulations with passion fruit
