and/or jojoba oil alone on quality of Washington Navel orange fruits through
marketing period at 18°C. The experiments were carried out during 2011 and
2012 seasons. Results showed that all dipping treatments of orange increased
fruit quality when compared with the control. Boric acid (1.0%)+jojoba oil (0.1%)
treatment gave maximum reduction in linear growth and dry weight of Penicillium
digitatum and P. itelicum, as well as disease infection (0.0%) caused
by both fungi in the two seasons. The same treatment decreased weight losses
percentage, fruit decay, total losses in fruit, titratable acidity and ascorbic
acid oxidase. On the other hand, increased soluble solids, SSC/acid ratio, ascorbic
acid content, peel thickness and juice percent. The recommendation of this study,
the combination treatment of boric acid (1.0%) plus Jojoba oil (0.1%) was the
most effective treatment in decreasing disease infection percentage of the tested
pathogenic fungi as well as weight losses, fruit decay, total loses in fruit,
titratable acidity and ascorbic acid oxidase. However, increasing the quality
of fruits was reported by such treatment.]]>Abd-Allah, A.S.E., A.A. Eman, Abd El-Moneim, M.M.S. Saleh and M.A.A.
