A meta-analysis using a logit non-linear mixed effects model for ‘Hass’ avocado postharvest performance data

Postharvest diseases and disorders in avocado cv. Hass and their relationship to preharvest management practices

“…Diseases and disorders are considered the most important factor for fruit damage at cosmetic, organoleptic and nutritional levels inducing a reduction in the perception of multifunctional quality ( Ramírez-Gil et al., 2019 ). Diseases may be of biotic origin such as fruit rot usually associated with microbial pathogens, or abiotic origin such as those caused by physiological disorders ( Burdon et al., 2013 ; Hernández et al., 2016 ; Ramírez-Gil et al., 2020 ; Sharma et al., 2017 ; White et al., 2009 ). Many of these problems are associated with excess of nitrogen in the last periods of fruit filling ( Willingham et al., 2006 ), and imbalances that undermine Ca and Mg uptake ( Everett et al., 2007 ).…”

“…Storage conditions are critical to the onset of postharvest diseases and disorders. They include time length of postharvest handling and the temperature and gas composition as well as the degree of fruit maturity at harvest time ( Burdon et al., 2013 ; Hernández et al., 2016 ; Pedreschi et al., 2016 ). Development of fruit diseases that are identified at postharvest stages usually begin as preharvest quiescent processes.…”

Fruit quality in Hass avocado and its relationships with different growing areas under tropical zones

“…It has been suggested that fruit acceptability is more correlated with texture, and taste with the oil content (Salazar-García et al, 2016a;Salazar-García et al, 2016b). In addition, it must be considered that quality is determined by multiple environmental factors, edaphic conditions, preharvest, harvest, and postharvest practices as well as geographical origins (Burdon et al, 2013;Ferreyra et al, 2016;Hernández et al, 2016;Tan et al, 2017). The biophysical, edaphic, environmental or management conditions in a productive system can give rise to a product with outstanding quality parameters, which can be used as a factor for market differentiation to increase the added value.…”

Influencia de la Materia Seca como Índice de Madurez de Cosecha y Tiempo de Almacenamiento en Frío sobre la Calidad del Aguacate cv. Hass Producido en la Región del Trópico Alto

“…Posteriormente, los frutos fueron situados para su maduración en una cámara Memmert HPP 110 a 20,0±0,1°C y 90,0±0,5% HR (Burdon et al, 2013;Bill et al, 2014;Arpaia et al, 2015). La muestra control que no fue sometida a refrigeración, se maduró en cámara inmediatamente después de su acondicionamiento.…”
