Nam Dok Mai Mango: Advanced Ethylene Management for Extended Shelf-Life and Commercial Viability
Biological Rationale & Physiological Architecture The Nam Dok Mai mango, a highly prized cultivar, presents unique post-harvest challenges. Specifically, understanding its physiological response to ethylene is paramount for extending shelf-life. Ethylene, a plant hormone, triggers ripening processes in climacteric fruits like mangoes. Therefore, precise management of this gas is critical. Consequently, controlling ethylene levels directly…
