Postharvest Ripening Physiology of Crops (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Pareek, Sunil

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a comprehensive interdisciplinary reference source for the various aspects of fruit ripening and postharvest behavior. It focuses on the postharvest physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology of ripening and provides a ripening overview of fruits and vegetables. It describes various developments that have taken place in the last decade with respect to identifying and altering the function of ripening-related genes. It also provides an overview of the most important metabolic pathways and genes that control volatile biosynthesis in model fruits.
