“…A higher SPAD value was obtained following the 2,000 mg•L -1 treatment compared to the control and the 1,000 mg•L -1 ABA treatment. Lee et al (2019) reported that chlorophyll content decreased when cut hydrangea flowers senesced after harvesting. In this study, the ).…”

“…Furthermore, an ongoing study is investigating sustainable value chains, aiming to reduce the degradation of quality in potted flowers from production to distribution (Havardi-Burger et al, 2020). Despite increasing consumer demand, few studies have focused on the post-production management of potted hydrangea, with the majority of active studies focusing on the cultivation, quality improvement, and post-harvest control methods of cut hydrangea (Lee et al, 2017;Nam et al, 2017;Lee and Lee, 2018;Lee et al, 2019).…”

This study compared the shelf life and quality of potted hydrangea ('Speedy Red') treated with different abscisic acid (ABA) spray concentrations and investigated the associated physiological changes. Plants were treated with 0 (control), 1,000, 2,000, or 2,500 mg•L -1 ABA, which was applied by spraying. Treatment with 2,000 and 2,500 mg•L -1 ABA extended the hydrangea shelf life by 2 days compared to the control, and the 2,000 mg•L -1 treatment attenuated change in sepal color and wilting compared to other treatments, suggesting quality control in potted plants. Additionally, the 2,000 mg•L -1 ABA spray treatment increased stomatal closure up to day 5 post-treatment, corresponding to the end of the shelf life for treated plants, indicating that ABA spray decreased transpiration-induced water loss. The 2,000 mg•L -1 ABA spray treatment resulted in the highest maximum quantum yield of PSII among the treatments, and the normalized difference vegetation index and the simple ratio index values were also higher than those obtained with other treatments. Thus, 2,000 mg•L -1 ABA spray treatment mitigated water stress by inducing stomatal closure in potted hydrangea ('Speedy Red'). Overall, the ABA spray treatment controlled stomatal closure and effectively inhibited transpiration, which minimized water loss and preserved plant moisture levels, thereby extending shelf life and quality. Our study also assessed the potential use of nondestructive measurements (e.g., chlorophyll fluorescence and vegetation indices) to monitor the quality of potted hydrangea, which may facilitate the evaluation of potted flower quality on site.ABA spray treatment at 2,000 mg•L -1 effectively extends the shelf life and improves the quality of potted hydrangea ('Speedy Red'). These results are useful for the postharvest management of potted hydrangeas.

“…Choi [19] reported a high correlation between fruit quality factors and shelf-life when comparing the quality and storability during MA storage for a large number of paprika varieties over two years, and Lee [20] reported a high correlation between the storage period and the chlorophyll content of cut hydrangea flowers. In addition, the authors of [21] used principal component analysis (PCA) and reported that the total number of bacteria increased with increasing temperature and humidity when fresh-cut head lettuce was wrapped with Ny/PE film and stored at 5…”

Evaluation of the Storage Characteristics in Maintaining the Overall Quality of Whole and Fresh-Cut Romaine Lettuce during MA Storage

et al. 2021

This study aimed to examine the effect of modified atmosphere (MA) storage on the quality and storability of romaine lettuce. Whole and fresh-cut romaine lettuce were packaged with 1300; 10,000; 50,000; 100,000 cc m−2·day−1·atm−1 O2 transmission rate (OTR) films and stored at 2 or 8 °C for 15 days. The respiration and ethylene production rates before pre-cooling were higher in fresh-cut lettuce than in whole romaine lettuce. The reduction in fresh weight for whole and fresh-cut romaine lettuce during storage was less than 0.5%. The CO2 concentration was less than 2%, except for the 1300 cc treatment (at 8 °C for whole and fresh-cut lettuce) and 10,000 cc (in fresh-cut lettuce). At the end date of storage, the overall quality of the whole lettuce was good, the off-odor was lower in the 10,000 cc treatment, and the 50,000 cc treatment at 8 °C led to good overall quality in the fresh-cut lettuce. The chlorophyll content of the whole lettuce was maintained at a higher level in the treatment of 10,000 cc at 8 °C, while it was higher in the 50,000 cc treatments at 2 and 8 °C in the fresh-cut lettuce. Correlation and PCA confirmed that the main factors affecting the storability and quality of romaine lettuce were fresh weight loss rate, off-odor, and the concentration of CO2. In addition, the storage characteristics of whole and fresh-cut lettuce were opposite to 0 in PC1 and PC2, indicating that the storage characteristics were different depending on the processing type.

“…Generally, hydrangeas refer to H. macrophylla and they may be either a mophead or lacecap type (Uemachi and Nishio, 2005;Uemachi et al, 2006;Kitamura and Ueno, 2015;Lee et al, 2019). H. macrophylla is a popularly cultivated horticultural crop grown in America, Asia, and Europe.…”

The Hydrangea 'Moonlight' cultivar was registered in 2020 by Chonnam National University. In 2015, mophead-type H. macrophylla 'Adria' and mophead-type H. macrophylla 'Ocean' were crossed, and the progenies were grown in 2016. We screened and selected for disease resistance lines during a field trial in 2016, and investigated the flower type, floral color, and growth type from 2017-2018. Finally, we selected the distinctive line D15009. The showy sterile flower's (sepal) color was pinkish (RHS Color Chart Purple Group 75C) and the floral head type was mophead. The inflorescence width and height were 7.80 and 14.84 cm, respectively. The average number of showy sterile flowers (calyces) per inflorescence was 152.3, and they were scentless. The average plant height was 56.83 cm and the growth type was semi-erect with stems that were bowing. Leaf length and width were 11.22 and 7.20 cm, respectively. 'Moonlight' was a late flowering garden cultivar. Flowers began to bloom in mid-April in the greenhouse, but in early June in the outer fields. There was a wide variation in flower color, ranging from pink, dark purple, and blue in accordance with the measurement of soil pH during gardening and pot cultivation. A new Hydrangea cultivar, 'Moonlight' was registered with the Korea Seed and Variety Service (plant variety protection number: 8059).
