In the last decade progress has been made in understanding the biochemistry, physiology, and molecular basis of CI. This book will provide the detailed information on postharvest chilling injury such as symptoms, variation, causes, influencing factors, physiology, biochemistry and molecular basis. It also offers management practices through physical, chemical, hormonal, and other treatments. | Postharvest Chilling Injury Of Fresh Produce by Sunil Pareek, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
