Farklı Hasat Sonrası Uygulamaların ‘Angeleno’ Erik Meyvelerinin Depolanabilirliği ve Meyve Kalitesi Üzerine Etkileri

Öz

Bu çalışmada, farklı hasat sonrası uygulamaların ‘Angeleno’ erik (Prunus salicina L.) çeşidinin depolama performansı ve meyve kalite özellikleri üzerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. Meyveler 2025 yılında Çanakkale ili Lapseki ilçesi Umurbey yöresinde bulunan ticari bir bahçeden ticari olgunluk döneminde hasat edilmiştir. Hasat sonrası Siega Fresh® Finish ve Siega Fresh® Citrus uygulamaları yapılmış ve meyveler modifiye atmosfer paketleme (MAP) koşullarında 1 °C sıcaklık ve %85–95 bağıl nemde depolanmıştır. Depolama süresi Siega Fresh® Finish için 120 gün, Siega Fresh® Citrus için ise 90 gün olarak belirlenmiş ve kalite parametreleri düzenli aralıklarla değerlendirilmiştir. Depolama süresince meyve solunumu nedeniyle MAP paketlerinin iç atmosferinde değişimler meydana gelmiş; oksijen oranı %20.8’den %10.1’e düşerken karbondioksit oranı %0.04’ten %7.5’e yükselmiştir. Depolama süresi ilerledikçe ağırlık kaybı artmış ve 120. günde %5.94’e ulaşmış, üç günlük raf ömrü sonunda %7.18 olarak belirlenmiştir. Çürüme oranı depolama sonunda %11.2’ye ulaşmıştır. Depolama sürecinde L* değeri azalırken a* değeri artmış, çözünür kuru madde yükselmiş, titre edilebilir asitlik azalmış ve pH değerinde hafif artış görülmüştür. Sonuçlar, Siega Fresh® uygulamalarının MAP depolama ile birlikte meyve kalitesinin korunmasına ve depolama süresinin uzatılmasına katkı sağladığını göstermektedir.

Effects of Different Postharvest Treatments on Storability and Fruit Quality of ‘Angeleno’ Plum

Öz

This study investigated the effects of different postharvest treatments on the storage performance and fruit quality of ‘Angeleno’ plum (Prunus salicina L.). Fruits were harvested at commercial maturity in 2025 from a commercial orchard located in Umurbey, Lapseki district, Çanakkale province, Türkiye. After harvest, Siega Fresh® Finish and Siega Fresh® Citrus treatments were applied, and the fruits were stored under modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) conditions at 1 °C and 85–95% relative humidity. The storage period was 120 days for Siega Fresh® Finish and 90 days for Siega Fresh® Citrus, and fruit quality parameters were evaluated at regular intervals. During storage, fruit respiration caused changes in the internal atmosphere composition of MAP packages; oxygen concentration decreased from 20.8% to 10.1%, while carbon dioxide concentration increased from 0.04% to 7.5%. Weight loss gradually increased during storage, reaching 5.94% at 120 days and 7.18% after a three-day shelf-life period. Decay incidence also increased, reaching 11.2% at the end of storage. During storage, the L* value decreased while the a* value increased, soluble solids content increased, titratable acidity decreased, and pH showed a slight increase. The results indicate that Siega Fresh® treatments combined with MAP storage contributed to maintaining fruit quality and extending the storage life of ‘Angeleno’ plum.
