Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids at 0.5 and 1.0 mg l-1 significantly increased berry weight, length and breadth of table grape.
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids at 0.5 mg l-1 effectively reduced the rate of berry softening during low temperature storage.
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids at 0.5 mg l-1 maintained external colour and stabilized anthocyanins of table grape during low temperature storage.
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids at 0.5 mg l-1 increased total phenols of table grape.
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids at 0.5 mg l-1 reduced the rate of degradation in TSS and TA during low temperature storage.
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids exhibited a protective role against decay development of table grape.
- Recommendation A preharvest foliar spray of 0.5 mg l-1 brassinosteroids could be an effective means of maintaining quality and extending postharvest life of grape during cold storage.
