“…1). This is in agreement with previous reports that MH delayed the onset of the climacteric peak of respiration in mango (Krishnamurthy and Subramanyam 1970), tomato (Ahmed and Abu-Goukh 2003), papaya (Abu-Goukh and Shattir 2012) and guava (Mohamed-Nour and Abu-Goukh 2013). Mango fruits treated with MH at 0, 500 and 1000 ppm with waxing, reached the climacteric peak six, eight and ten days later, respectively, compared with the control (Fig.…”

“…The effect of MH on the ripening process varies with different types of fruits. Harvested mango fruits dipped in 1000 and 2000 ppm MH showed delayed ripening (Krishnamurthy and Subramanyam 1970). Similar delaying effects of MH on ripening were reported in tomato (Ahmed and Abu-Goukh 2003), papaya (Abu-Goukh and Shattir 2012) and guava (Mohamed-Nour and Abu-Goukh 2013).…”

The study was carried out to assess the variability for seed yieldand its components in chickpea. Twelve chickpea genotypes were evaluatedin two sowing dates (mid Nov. and mid Dec.) under two levels of watertreatments at two locations (Shambat and Shendi) during the period 2004-2008. A split-plot experiment with four replications, with main-plotsallocated for water treatment and sub-plots for the genotypes, was applied.The water levels adopted were normal irrigation (10-12 days interval) andwater stress (withholding irrigation water for three weeks during theflowering stage). The results showed that, the early sowing during Novembergave the highest; seed yield, pod number per plant and the heaviest seedweight. Likewise, normal irrigation gave the highest; seed yield, pod numberper plant, seed number per pod and seed weight, compared to the stresstreatment. Moreover, a wide range of genetic variability was detected for allcharacters at the four environments, between the two water treatments andamong the evaluated genotypes. The genotype-water interactions at the fourenvironments were significant (P<0.05) for seed yield and its components,except for number of seeds per pod at all environments. The genotypesRubatab and Wad-Hamid (checks) scored the highest seed yield at the fourenvironments and under normal irrigation, whereas Rubatab and ILC6023scored the highest seed yield under water stress condition

Leaf:fruit ratio and irrigation supply affect seasonal changes in minerals, organic acids and sugars of mango fruit

et al. 2004

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

To determine the effects of assimilate and water supply on the determination of mango fruit quality, the seasonal variations of minerals, acids and sugar concentrations were investigated over two successive years. To manipulate the assimilate supply, selected branches were girdled to provide ratios of 10, 25, 50 and 100 leaves per fruit. Irrigation was managed to provide two types of water supply treatments. Fruit growth rate was greater when increasing the leaf:fruit ratio. Structural dry matter content and total dry matter content of flesh were higher in fruit with higher leaf:fruit ratios. Treatments had no effect on the structural to total dry matter ratio of flesh. Potassium and magnesium to structural dry weight ratios were not affected by treatments, whereas the calcium to structural dry weight ratio was higher in the flesh of fruit grown under low leaf:fruit ratios. Low assimilate supply increased the ratios of malic and citric acid to structural dry weight. This treatment had little effect on acid concentrations. Glucose and fructose to structural dry weight ratios were higher when assimilate supply was lower. Low leaf:fruit ratios increased fructose concentration but not glucose concentration. Irrigation treatment strongly affected fructose concentration. Sucrose concentration, based either on structural dry matter or on fresh matter, was significantly increased by higher leaf-to-fruit ratios. When the fruit was close to maturity, levels of sucrose storage and starch breakdown were positively correlated with assimilate supply. Levels of starch breakdown were correlated with irrigation supply. The effects of these treatments on sugar concentrations may change fruit taste.
