Abstract

Tropical and Subtropical Fruits: Postharvest Biology and Storage

Highlights

  • Banana is one of the major commercial fruit crops grown in tropics and subtropics

  • Is special issue is focused on the factors involved in ripening, senescence, and deterioration of harvested tropical and subtropical fruits and the postharvest technologies to restrict loss and ensure the maximum quality value

  • Li et al clone one PLDα gene from banana fruit, which shows an increasing trend during fruit ripening, thereby leading to the damage of cell-membrane integrity and senescence of postharvest bananas. en, they continue their Phospholipase D (PLD) research and focus their paper on its response to mechanical wounding in postharvest banana fruit, which provides basic knowledge for further investigating the mechanism of postharvest banana adapting to environmental stresses

Summary

Introduction

Banana is one of the major commercial fruit crops grown in tropics and subtropics. It is very susceptible to mechanical damage during harvesting, handling, packaging, and transportation, which results in a substantial reduction in quality.
