Horticulturists are interested in evaluating how cultivar, environment, or production system inputs can affect postharvest quality. Ambient mass spectrometry approaches enable analysis of minimally processed samples under ambient conditions and offer an attractive high-throughput alternative for ...
INTRODUCTION: Metabolomics is an important tool to support postharvest fruit development and ripening studies. Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) is a tropical fruit with high market value but has short shelf-life during postharvest handling. Several postharvest technol...
Trichothecium roseum is a highly destructive postharvest pathogenic fungus that causes pink mold rot in various fruits and leads to significant agricultural and economic losses. While Phytoene is known to be crucial for phytopathogens, its roles in postharvest fungi, remain largely obsc...
