Abstract
Introduction: In the present study, the effects of gamma irradiation and packaging on storage quality of partially matured peach was studied. The fruit was irradiated in the dose range of 2.5 and 5.0 kGy and was stored in paper and wooden boxes at ambient temperature (25±2 OC).
Highlights
In the present study, the effects of gamma irradiation and packaging on storage quality of partially matured peach was studied
Peach fruits cannot be stored for longer time due to hot humid climatic condition such as prevailing in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan and microorganism’s growth
The short shelf life causes a problem in efficient handling in transportation and most of the peach fruits go to waste
Summary
The effects of gamma irradiation and packaging on storage quality of partially matured peach was studied. The fruit was irradiated in the dose range of 2.5 and 5.0 kGy and was stored in paper and wooden boxes at ambient temperature (25±2 OC)
