more of the following treatments: 1) after-ripening (dry storage of seeds under ambient temperatures before sowing), 2) GA 3 , and 3) cold stratification ( Baskin and Baskin, 1998 , 2004 ). Broom sedge ( Carex scoparia ) germination was enhanced by up
applied using pads that slowly release gaseous SO 2 into the packaging ( Ahmed et al., 2018 ; Jia et al., 2020 ). The use of SO 2 pads in storage may be more accessible to small growers who may have access to cold storage but not CA systems that would
, enzyme activity and pericarp characteristics, the shelf life of chestnuts is very limited ( Correia et al., 2009 ). Therefore, chestnuts are frozen, cold stored, or dried to extend their storage period. However, the nuts have a high moisture content and
). ‘Royal Gala’ apples are also susceptible to the development of flesh breakdown during and after cold storage ( Lee et al., 2013 ). However, flesh breakdown development can be delayed following fruit exposure to 1-MCP ( Lee et al., 2013 ). Nonetheless, 1
atmosphere (RA) cold storage associated with increasing severity of sunburn browning of apples. We compared flesh firmness, soluble solids concentration (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), and the ratio of SSC to TA (SAR) in apples with different classes of
the United States revealed that two used cold, moist stratification (3–4 weeks at 38 to 45 °F), but seven growers used cold, dry storage before germination (M.H. Meyer, unpublished data). All growers stressed the importance of pure seed and using seed
( Macháčková et al., 1998 ). In the present study, our objective was to determine the effects of exogenous hormone ABA or its biosynthesis inhibitor fluridone application of cold storage before planting on flower quality and the response of endogenous hormones
‘Khenizi’ date fruit. Cold storage, Modified Atmosphere Packaging, and Controlled Atmosphere Storage (CA) have been used to minimize quality changes in date palm fruit during storage ( Aleid and Saikhan, 2017 ; Alhamdan et al., 2015 ; Alsawmahi et al
