Figure 1.
The effect of different concentrations of prohexadione-Ca and calcium chloride on (A) weight loss, (B) disease severity, (C) fungal count, and (D) bacterial count of strawberries stored at 4°C for 20 days. Values are means of three replicates. Statistical analysis was performed using LSD test at p ≤ 5%. LSD, least significant difference.
Figure 2.
The effect of different concentrations of prohexadione-Ca and calcium chloride on colour indices of (A) L*, (B) a*, (C) b*, and (D) TSS content of strawberries stored at 4°C for 20 days. Values are means of three replicates. Statistical analysis was performed using LSD test at p ≤ 5%. LSD, least significant difference.
Figure 3.
The effect of different concentrations of prohexadione-Ca and calcium chloride on (A) titratable acidity (TA), (B) vitamin C, (C) total phenols, and (D) total flavonoids content of strawberries stored at 4°C for 20 days. Values are means of three replicates. Statistical analysis was performed using LSD test at p ≤ 5%. LSD, least significant difference.
Figure 4.
The effect of different concentrations of prohexadione-Ca and calcium chloride on (A) PPO, and (B) POD of strawberries stored at 4°C for 20 days. Values are means of three replicates. Statistical analysis was performed using LSD test at p ≤ 5%. LSD, least significant difference; PPO, polyphenol oxidase.
