“…These observations agreed with previous reports that investigated application of ALF material on Cavendish banana during summer and winter [4,22]. Temperature rise within the cover material was partly caused by the increase in layering [6]. In the winter trial, WPNW (2 layers) and multilayer (4 layers) with PS sheet in the control treatment exhibited the highest maximum temperatures (Figures 3A and 4).…”

“…In this study, all five treatments (in both trials) did not significantly affect pulp-to-peel ratio (Figure 5). This result concurred with previous studies on different material covers, where perforated blue PE, NW, and ALF bunch cover materials did not significantly increase pulp-to-peel ratios of William, Jahaji and Cavendish banana, respectively [2,6,7]. A recent study conducted on Cavendish banana during the winter season also found that perforated blue PE and NW did not significantly affect pulp-to-peel ratio [4,15].…”

“…Recently, application of banana cover materials during the preharvest stage has received increasing interest to investigate the ability to mitigate damage associated with physiological disorders arising from seasonal temperature changes, insect and pest infestation, as well as to create a microclimate for fruit development [1,[5][6][7]. In most tropical and subtropical banana growing countries, cover materials of polyethylene (PE) film are extensively applied to prevent peel damage and insect attack, as well as to improve visual appearance [2,8,9].…”

Performance of different cover materials on improving Cavendish banana quality was examined during winter and summer. The banana bunch was covered with a thin nonwoven innermost layer, followed by cover materials arranged from inner to outer as follows. (1) Control (commercial cover), paper/polystyrene sheet (PS)/non-perforated blue polyethylene (NPPE), (2) nonwoven (NW)/NPPE, (3) waterproof nonwoven (WPNW), (4) aluminum foil (ALF), and (5) WPNW + ALF. For the summer trial, control without PS layer was applied. Material properties including thickness, light transmissivity and heat energy (Qx) were evaluated. Results showed that Qx values transferred through PS sheet, NW, WPNW and ALF were not significantly different. ALF exhibited the lowest light transmissivity, associated with the highest fruit lightness (L*) and lowest fruit weight. For the winter trial, all cover materials exhibited chilling injury on fruit caused by temperatures below 10 °C. For the summer trial, five treatments prevented sunburn defect. Under field air temperature of 47.5 °C, ALF exhibited the lowest temperature (31.6 °C). All cover materials reduced hand and fruit sizes, whereas WPNW resulted in an increase in total soluble solids and prevented fading of the green peel color. Results suggested that WPNW, with reduced layers as environmentally friendly and reusable materials, had potential as a cover material to improve the quality of Cavendish banana.

Özet: Subtropik koşullarda hevenklere koruyucu torba takılması, meyvelerde soğuk zararının önlenmesi, meyvelerin temizliği ve ayrıca hastalık ve zararlıların kontrolü açısından önemlidir. Ülkemizde açıkta yetiştiricilikte koruyucu torba takılması zaruri olmakla birlikte, koruyucu torbanın rengi ve tipi ile ilgili standart bir uygulama bulunmamaktadır. Bu nedenlerle planlanan bu çalışmada, 'Dwarf Cavendish' muz çeşidinde, açıkta muz yetiştiriciliğinde farklı koruyucu torba uygulamalarının hevenk ağırlığı, meyve gelişme süresi, meyve kalitesi ve rengi üzerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada, açıkta muz yetiştiriciliğinin yapıldığı yörelerde yaygın olarak kullanılan uygulama (sarı renkli ambalaj kâğıdının dışına 0.10 mm kalınlığında şeffaf plastik örtü geçirilmiş) kontrol uygulaması olarak dikkate alınmış ve kontrol dışında dört farklı koruyucu torba tipi denenmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, hevenk ağırlığı, parmak özellikleri, meyve eti oranı ve suda çözünebilir kuru madde ile meyve gelişme süresi açısından en iyi uygulamanın mavi plastik torba uygulaması olduğunu göstermiştir. Olgunlaştırma sonrası C değeride en yüksek mavi plastik torba uygulamasında belirlenirken, meyve sarı rengin koyuluğunu gösteren h° açı değeri ise kontrol uygulamasında en yüksek olarak saptanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda; incelenen kriterler göz önüne alındığında mavi plastik torba uygulamasının olumlu sonuçlar verdiği belirlenmiştir.
