Bøker i Innovations in Postharvest Technology Series-serien

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.

This book has been edited to advance understanding of material development, intelligent selection of nanomaterials to ensure the nontoxic nature, and future perspectives of nanotechnology on postharvest produce.
