| In the study, effects of aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) treatment and maturity stages on physico-mechanical and chemical properties of fruit of plum fruit (Prunus domestica cv. ‘President’) was investigated. The effect AVG doses for each maturity stage on geometric mean diameter and surface area of plum fruit was statistically significant. Geometric mean diameter and surface area were higher on 4 August harvest date than the other harvest dates. The effect AVG doses on the fruit volume and fruit mass of plum fruit were statistically significant for each maturity stage. While L*, b*, and C* color characteristics of plum fruit for all AVG treatments increased according to maturity stages. The effect of AVG treatments on the fruit removal force (FRF) and fruit... |
