“…This shows that the effects of GA 3 in the T1-T4 treatments on cashew peduncle firmness may not be associated with tissue disintegration; however, it may be explained by other factors such as turgor control. Souza et al (2016) reported that GA 3 positively affected 'BRS 189' cashew peduncles, which showed, besides lower loss of mass and firmness, a better visual appearance and Table 1. Mean values of physical variables of 'CCP 76' cashew (Anacardium occidentale) nut and peduncles treated with 180 mg L -1 gibberellic acid (GA 3 ) and 180 mg L -1 aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG), isolated or combined, at different days after anthesis (DAA) (1) .…”

“…Although several preharvest treatments with growth regulators have been reported for fruit (Amarante et al, 2005;Huang et al, 2014;Mesejo et al, 2010;Steffens et al, 2011;Zhang & Whiting, 2013), only one was used to evaluate the effects of the preharvest application of growth regulators on cashew cultivars (Souza et al, 2016). In this study, 'CCP 76' and 'BRS 189' cashew were treated with 180 mg L -1 AVG and GA 3 at maturation stage 1, and peduncles were harvested ripe at stage 7 and then stored under refrigeration for 20 days.…”

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of the preharvest treatment with gibberellic acid (GA3) and aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) on the quality and physiological attributes of ripe 'CCP 76' cashew (Anacardium occidentale) peduncles at different developmental stages. Sprays of 180 mg L-1 GA3 and 180 mg L-1 AVG were applied, combined and isolated, at 34, 40, and 44 days after anthesis (DAA), and peduncles were harvested ripe at 46 DAA and evaluated for physical and physiological variables. The treatment with GA3 resulted in firmer peduncles with a greater apical diameter, but did not affect the physiological variables activity of the pectin methylesterase and polygalacturonase cell wall enzymes and degree of lipid peroxidation of the biological membranes, nor the physical attributes total mass (peduncles and nut) and nut size. At early developmental stages (34 DAA), GA3 increased the activity of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase, and, at later stages (40 DAA), promoted polyphenol and carotenoid accumulation. The application of AVG at the final stages (44 DAA) provided greater total antioxidant activity, despite the lower ascorbate peroxidase activity. The application of GA3 pre-harvest increases the firmness and diameter of the cashew peduncles, and the treatment with AVG increases the total antioxidant activity of the peduncles.

“…GA3, which promotes cell division and growth (Pharis and King, 1985), can be effective in maintaining fruit firmness during storage due to its effect on the cell wall (Fortes et al, 2015). Indeed, Souza et al (2016) in cashew apple, GA3-treated fruit had higher fruit firmness values during storage; Ozkan et al (2016), on the other hand, suggested that fruit with high firmness values were obtained with GA3 application and the effect of GA3 application was significant in maintaining these values during storage. Edible coating applications such as Parka, chitosan and Aleo vera delay maturation by decreasing cell wall enzyme activity (Khaliq et al, 2019) and oxygen uptake (Cha and Chinnan, 2004), and maintain cell turgor pressure by limiting transpiration (Mannozzi et al, 2018).…”

The study aimed to assess the effects of pre-harvest gibberellic acid (GA3) and Parka applications on fruit quality and bioactive components of jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill. cv. ‘Li’) fruit during the storage. Fruit were kept at 0±0.5 °C and 90±5% RH for 45 days. Parka and GA3 applications delayed weight losses and respiration rate in the cold storage. While the effect of the Parka application on the decrease in fruit firmness values depending on the storage time was not significant, it can be said that GA3 application was effective in maintaining the fruit firmness in the cold storage. The increase in soluble solids content (SSC) during cold storage was less with GA3 application. The decrease in titratable acidity with ripening in the cold storage was similar in the Parka and control applications. It can be said that GA3 application was effective in maintaining the titratable acidity during storage and this effect increased with the combination of Parka+GA3. The highest vitamin C at the end of the storage was recorded in fruit treated with Parka. Total phenolics, total flavonoids and antioxidant activity decreased in all applications during the storage. GA3 and Parka applications retarded the losses in total phenolics, total flavonoids and antioxidant activity in the storage. As a result, it can be said that the pre-harvest GA3 and Parka applications give positive results in maintaining the quality properties of jujube fruit in the cold storage.

“…Gibberellic acid (GA3), which plays significant role in breaking seed dormancy, promoting flower bud differentiation and stem elongation, and delaying the senescence of plant organs (Achard et al, 2009;Sun, 2010;Zaho et al, 2018), , has been used in commercial horticultural cultivation as a plant growth regulator to improve fruit size and quality (Khalil and Aly, 2013;Zang et al, 2016;Gundogdu et al, 2017), to delay ripening and to maintain fruit quality of postharvest crops (Steffens et al, 2011;Huang et al, 2014;Souza et al, 2016;Zaho et al, 2018). Basak et al (1998), Clayton et al (2003), Lenahan et al (2008), Zhang and Whiting (2011) Einhorn et al (2013) and Canli et al (2015), have reported that pre-harvest GA3 application has a significant effect on quality of sweet cherry fruit.…”

The fruit of sweet cherry are more sensitive against external factors than many fruit species so post harvest quality loss on sweet cherry is quite higher. For this reason, it is very significant to reduce the postharvest losses and to extend the storage period in sweet cherry, and this is one of the main objectives for producers and consumers. The aim of the study was to determine the effects of GA3, CaCl2 and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) applications on individual phenolics compounds in postharvest storage on sweet cherry. In the study, GA3 was applied at 30 mg L-1 concentration when fruit skin was yellow-straw, and CaCl2 was applied at 0.5% concentration 20 and 10 days before the estimated harvest date. The study consisted of 4 different spray (Control (water only), GA3, CaCl2, GA3+ CaCl2) and 2 packaging aplications (without and with MAP). MAP was applied to the fruit after the harvest. In our study, individual phenolics such as catechin, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, epicatechin, caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, 4-aminobenzoic acid and protocatechuic acid were determined. It has been determined that pre-harvested GA3, and CaCl2 applications have increased the content of individual phenolics in fruit. The concentration of individual phenolics generally decreased with increasing cold storage time, whereas epicatechin and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid concentrations increased. 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and caffeic acid concentrations were higher CaCl2, and GA3 treatments than in control in all measured period. The MAP application had a positive effect on the losses of other phenolic compounds except catechin during cold storage.
