Effects of Anthrquinones Treatments on Postharvest Physiology and Storage of Suichuan Kumquat Fruits
In this study, Suichuan kumquat fruits were treated with 0.1 g/L, 0.2 g/L, 0.3 g/L anthrquinones, then stored at T∶7℃(±1℃;) and RH:85%-90%, the changes of postharvest physiology and quality in fruits during storage were investigated. The results showed that anthrquinones treatment can significantly decreased rotting rate, weightloss rate and respiratory intensity and deferred the decrease of VC, titratable acid, total sugar, soluble solids, soluble protein contents in kumquat fruits during storage and treatment effect of 0.2 g/L anthrquinones was the best.
