Vol. 2. Fruits and Vegetables

Author(s):

Ramdane Dris PhD., Raina Niskanen PhD., Shri Mohan Jain PhD.

Category: Crop


This book volume examines on the influence of postharvest practices on the quality of horticultural commodities in order to enhance preservation of fresh fruits and vegetables (including root and tuber crops) grown under different climatic conditions, worldwide. We have provided information by highlighting the achievements related to minimizing the postharvest losses, postharvest technology, physiological changes, storage problems and processing aspects. Fifteen chapters are included in this book volume.The fifteen chapters which constitute  this volume  provide  a board  spectrum which includes: The Cool Chain and Transport: An Integrated Temperature Management System For Fresh Produce; Techniques of Modified and Controlled  Atmosphere Storage for Fresh Fruits and Vegetables; Quality, Handing and Storage of White Asparagus; Food Safety on Vegetables; Postharvest Technology of Onions; Mechanics and Texture of Fruit and Vegetables; Modified and Controlled Atmospheres to Reduce Quality Loss of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables at Postharvest; Physiology and Postharvest Quality of Date Palm Fruits; Citrus: Post-Harvest Cold Chain; Non-destructive Harvest  Time Decision  of Horticultural Crops; Development, Physiology and Postharvest Technology of Mango Fruit; Postharvest Biology and Technology of Logan Fruit; Postharvest Physiology and Quality Changers of Loquat Fruit; Postharvest Physiology and Handling of Litchi Fruit ; Postharvest Technology of Root and Tuber Crops.
