Fruit ripening and quality
D. Gierson,Adel A. Kader +1 more
TL;DR: The general features of tomato ripening are outlined first, together with a discussion of the cellular mechanisms regulating the process, followed by a consideration of the ways in which genotype, growing conditions, disease, and post-harvest history can influence specific quality attributes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Apple aroma : alcohol acyltransferase, a rate limiting step for ester biosynthesis, is regulated by ethylene
TL;DR: The results suggest that ethylene is involved in ester biosynthesis in apple via regulation of AAT and gene expression levels of specifically an AAT clone were highly regulated by ethylene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postharvest Physiology and Quality Maintenance of Sliced Pear and Strawberry Fruits
Joan C. Rosen,Adel A. Kader +1 more
TL;DR: Sliced strawberries (cvs.‘Pajaro’ and 'G-3′) and partially ripe pears (cv. ‘Bartlett’) were dipped in various solutions (citric acid, ascorbic acid, and/or calcium chloride) and stored in air or in controlled atmospheres (CA) for 7 days at 2.5°C followed by one day at 20°C as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled atmosphere-induced changes in pH and organic acid metabolism may affect color of stored strawberry fruit
TL;DR: The skin and flesh of "Selva" strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa Duch) stored at 5°C in air or 2kPa O2 became darker red and accumulated anthocyanin levels, but these changes were reduced in fruit stored in air 20 kPa CO2, 2 kPa O220kPa CO 2, 0.5 kPaO2, and 0.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma Antioxidant Capacity Changes Following a Meal as a Measure of the Ability of a Food to Alter In Vivo Antioxidant Status
Ronald L. Prior,Liwei Gu,Xianli Wu,Robert A. Jacob,Gity Sotoudeh,Adel A. Kader,Richard A. Cook +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that consumption of certain berries and fruits, such as blueberries, mixed grape and kiwifruit, was associated with increased plasma AOC in the postprandial state and consumption of an energy source of macronutrients containing no antioxidants wasassociated with a decline in plasma A OC.
