CANCELADO - Seminario científico-técnico: Preharvest, but not postharvest water stress conditions regulate tomato fruit cuticle metabolism and affect fruit firmness

  • Ponente: Dr. Paco Romero (Instituto de Agroquímica y Tecnología de Alimentos - IATA-CSIC)

  • Resumen:

POR MOTIVOS PERSONALES DEL PONENTE ESTE SEMINARIO QUEDA CANCELADO.

The softening of fleshy fruits, such as tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), is complex and is thought to be influenced by substantial cell wall metabolism and intercellular separation, as well as transpirational water loss and cellular water status. The comparison of the relationship between watering regime and fruit cuticle properties, and their relationships with fruit shelf life and quality during dehydrating postharvest storage between Ailsa Craig, a normally softening cultivar, and the tomato mutant line DFD (delayed fruit deterioration) has revealed that limiting water availability during tomato cultivation, but not postharvest water stress conditions, affects fruit cuticle biosynthesis and metabolism, thereby reducing fruit weight loss and softening and extending shelf life.
