“…Pre-harvest GA 3 treatments have been reported to increase the plum (cv. Angelino) sizes (Erogul & Sen, 2015). Previous studies have reported increased fruit weight and size for 'Crimson Gold' nectarine (García-Pallas et al, 2001), 'Patterson' apricot (Southwick et al, 1997), and peaches and nectarines (González-Rossia et al, 2007).…”

The research work aimed at investigating the effect of pre-harvest gibberellic acid (GA 3 ) treatment on the quality of 'Dbilnaja' and 'Black Star' Japanese plum varieties. GA 3 was sprayed onto the trees during the fruit color break at 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 ppm concentrations. After pre-cooling, the plums were placed in modified atmosphere packages and exposed to the following conditions as follows: short storage-transportation (ST) [20 days at 2 °C and 90% relative humidity (RH)]; distribution center (DC) (5 days at 6 °C and 80% RH), and shelf life conditions (SL) (2 days at 20 °C and 70% RH). Pre-harvest GA 3 treatments increased the fruit weight and size. Treatment of GA 3 at 50, 75, and 100 ppm increased the fruit flesh firmness and total soluble substances (TSS) values in both the plum varieties during storage, transport, and marketing; it also limited the weight loss during the marketing process. Treatment of GA 3 had no significant effects on the color, titratable acidity (TA), and the total phenolic and antioxidant activity values of plums. Pre-harvest GA 3 treatment at 50 ppm GA 3 can be thus recommended for both the plum varieties due to its effect on the fruit quality.

“…Earlier studies on the quality and storage of Japanese plums were focused on the ' Angelina' variety (Erkan et al, 2005;Dzkaya et al, 2005;Kaynas et al, 2010;Erogul & Sen, 2015). Enhancing the quality and postharvest durability of other Japanese plums is of great importance for increasing their consumption.…”

“…We did not thin fruitlets in our experiment. Fruitlet thinning may have a positive effect not only on fruit weight but also on SSC (Erogul and Sen, 2015). Often, a negative correlation is found between yield and SSC in fruits (Vangdal et al, 2007b).…”

Twenty plum cultivars on Myrobalan (Prunus cerasifera Ehrh.) seedling rootstock were tested in 2012–2017 at the Institute of Horticulture of the Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry. Plum trees were spaced at 4.5 × 2.5 m and trained as spindles. Orchard floor management included frequent mowing of grass in the alleyways with herbicide strips along tree rows. ‘Duke of Edinburgh’, ‘Kijevas Vēlā’, ‘Dąbrowicka Prune’, ‘Čačanska Najbolje’, ‘and ‘Štaro Vengrinė’ cultivars were the most vigorous plum trees at the end of 6th year. Their trunk diameter achieved 92–96 mm. ‘Valor’, ‘Queen Victoria’, ‘Herman’, ‘Čačanska Najbolje’, ‘Favorita del Sultano’, ‘Ave’, and ‘Jubileum’ cultivars had the lowest trunk diameter — 72–78 mm. The highest cumulative yield of four fruiting years was recorded for ‘Kometa’ and ‘Violeta’ cultivars, respectively, 43.0 and 46.5 kg/tree. ‘Favorita del Sultano’, ‘Rausvė’, and ‘Kijevas Vēlā’ produced the largest fruits — 52–60 g. The smallest fruit occurred on ‘Dąbrowicka Prune’ and ‘Herman’ cultivars, respectively, 22 and 25 g. ‘Dąbrowicka Prune’ had the highest soluble solids content (SSC) — 19.5%. The least SSC was recorded in ‘Kometa’, ‘Violeta’ and ‘Herman’ fruits — 10.6–11.8%. ‘Renklod Rannij Doneckij’, ‘Čačanska Najbolje’, and ‘Valor’ cultivars had the highest fruit flesh firmness.

“…The fruits treated with 120 mg L -1 and 180 mg L -1 of GA 3 presented higher values for the SS/AT ratio, and consequently resulted in sweeter acerola. Erogul and Sem (2015) evaluating the effect of gibberellic acid at concentrations of 50 and 75 mg L -1 on plum quality (Prunus salicina Lindl.) related positive changes on color fruits and an increase in soluble solids content and firmness after application of GA 3 was also observed.…”

ABSTRACT-The goal of this study was study the postharvest quality of acerola clone BRS 236 (Malpighia emarginata D.C.) which was harvested at physiological maturity and submitted to four treatments under immersion during 5 minutes at 25 °C, which are: control (water), 60 mg L . After treatment the fruits were packed in polystyrene trays and placed with polyethylene film and then stored at 10 ± 2 °C and 85 ± 5% RH for 12 days. Were analyzed in three days intervals (0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 days): skin color, firmness, pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids, SS/TA ratio, vitamin C and yellow flavonoids. Vitamin C, anthocyanins and yellow flavonoids were not influenced by treatments with GA 3 at the end of 12-day of cold storage at 10 ºC. The exogenous application of 120 mg L -1 of GA 3 resulted in retention of red color and content of anthocyanins of acerola fruits BRS 236 clone 12-day storage at 10 °C. Index Terms: Color; Storage; Firmness; Vitamin C; Gibberellin. QUALIDADE PÓS-COLHEITA DE ACEROLAS (Malpighia emarginata)TRATADAS COM ÁCIDO GIBERÉLICO E ARMAZENADAS SOB REFRIGERAÇÃO RESUMO-Objetivou-se com este trabalho estudar a qualidade pós-colheita de acerolas do clone BRS 236 (Malpighia emarginata D.C.), colhidas na maturidade fisiológica e submetidas a quatro tratamentos com ácido giberélico (GA 3 ) por imersão durante 5 minutos a 25 °C, sendo eles: controle (água), 60 mg L -1 ; 120 mg L -1 e 180 mg L -1 . Após o tratamento os frutos foram colocados em bandejas de isopor e cobertos com filme de polietileno, e em seguida armazenados à temperatura de 10±2 ºC, com umidade relativa de 85±5%, durante 12 dias. Foram analisadas em intervalo de três dias (0, 3, 6, 9 e 12 dias): coloração da casca, firmeza, pH, acidez total titulável, sólidos solúveis, relação SS/AT, vitamina C e flavonóides amarelos. Compostos bioativos como a vitamina C e flavonóides não foram influenciados pelos tratamentos com GA 3 ao final de 12 dias de armazenamento a 10 ºC. A aplicação exógena de 120 mg L -1 de GA 3 resultou em maior retenção da cor e conteúdo de antocianinas em acerolas do clone BRS 236 durante 12 dias de armazenamento a 10 ºC. Termos para indexação: Cor; Armazenamento; Firmeza; Vitamina C; Giberelinas 1 (Paper 017-16).
