This book, chock full of color illustrations, addresses the main postharvest physiological disorders studied in fruits and vegetables. For a wide variety of fruits and vegetables the book describes visual symptoms, triggering and inhibiting mechanisms, and approaches to predict and control these disorders after harvest. Color photographs illustrate the disorders, important factors, physiology, and management Although there are many scientific publications on postharvest physiological disorders, there are no recent reviews or books putting together the most recent information about the mechanisms regulating, as well as about the possible approaches to predict and control these disorders.
Sergio Tonetto de Freitas is a researcher on Postharvest Physiology and Technology at the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation, Embrapa. Before working at Embrapa, he was a PhD student in the Plant Biology Graduate Group, and latter a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Plant Science Department at the University of California, Davis. His PhD and Postdoctoral researches were focused on understanding the mechanisms regulating fruit susceptibility to calcium (Ca2+) deficiency disorders. Although these disorders have been studied for more than a hundred years, his PhD and Postdoctoral studies proved for the first time that fruit susceptibility to Ca2+ deficiency disorders is mainly regulated by mechanisms controlling cellular Ca2+ partitioning and distribution. He also has experience in biochemistry, plant molecular biology, laboratory techniques, statistic programs. He has received a total of five UCDavis awards, three Jastro Shields research award, one Joseph M. Ogawa research and teaching endowment award, and one Shapiro Family award for excellence in science.
Dr. Sunil Pareek obtained Ph.D. in Horticulture (PHT) from Rajasthan Agricultural University, Bikaner, India. He joined Maharana Pratap University of Agriculture and Technology (MPUAT), Udaipur, India in 2005. Before moving as Associate Professor to National Institute of Food Technology Entrepreneurship and Management (NIFTEM), Kundli, Haryana, India in 2015 he was at Maharana Pratap University of Agriculture and Technology (MPUAT), Udaipur, India from 2005 to 2015. He is involved in teaching UG, PG and Ph.D. students with special focus on postharvest physiology, technology and processing of fruits. Dr. Pareek has published more than 40 papers, 40 presentations in National and International Seminars and Conferences, 6 books, 3 manuals, 6 technical bulletins, 40 popular articles, and several book chapters to his credit.
