Improving storage quality of blueberries with methyl jasmonate.

Author(s) : WANG C. Y.

Summary

At high storage temperature (20 °C), blueberry fruit deteriorated rapidly and methyl jasmonate treatment was not effective. At low storage temperature (0 °C), few differences were found between methyl jasmonate treated and untreated fruit. However, at 10 °C storage, blueberries treated with methyl jasmonate had less decay, and maintained higher levels of sugars and organic acids than the untreated fruit in all cultivars tested. Oxygen radical absorbance capacity was also studied in the different cases.
