Effects of Different Storage Methods on the Fruit Quality and Physiological Changes in Yihong Honey Peach

Taking Yihong,the main cultivar of mid-ripening honey peaches(Prunus persica)in Hunan,as material,this study explored the effects of different storage methods on the fruit quality and physiological changes in Yihong honey peach by the combination of polyethylene film packaging with low-temperature storage.The results showed that the weight loss rate of packaged storage at normal temperature(T1)was significantly lower than that of unpackaged storage at normal temperature(CK),but there was no significant difference in other indicators.In the middle of storage,the respiration rate and ethylene release of packaged storage at 0℃(T3)were extremely significantly lower or significantly lower than those of unpackaged storage at 0℃(T2),packaged storage at 0℃after cold adapting at 8℃for 5 d(T4),and packaged storage in a fluctuating temperature range of 0~3.5℃(T5).After storage,the structure of the middle lamella in the cell wall of T3 was compact and uniform,and the mitochondrial structure was complete,while the cell walls and mitochondria of T4 and T5 were severely deformed and disintegrated.The activities of antioxidant enzymes peroxidase(POD)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)of T3 was significantly higher than those of T4 and T5,and the content of malondialdehyde(MDA)and polyphenol oxidase(PPO)of T3 was also the lowest.Therefore,0°C packaged storage can effectively delay the senescence of Yihong honey peach and prolong its freshness period.

A review of previous studies on the applications of fiber optic sensing technologies in geotechnical monitoring

Geotechnical engineering is characterized by many uncertainties,including soil material properties,environmental effects,and engineering design and construction,which bring a significant challenge to geotechnical monitoring.However,conventional sensors with several inherent limitations,such as electromagnetic interference,signal loss in long-distance transmission,and low durability in harsh environments cannot fully meet current monitoring needs.Recently,fiber optic sensing technologies have been successfully applied in geotechnical monitoring due to the significant advantages of anti-electromagnetic interference,stable signal long-distance transmission,high durability,high sensitivity,and lightweight,which can be considered an ideal replacement for conventional sensors.In this paper,the working principle of different fiber optic sensing technologies,the development of fiber optic-based sensors,and the recent application status of these sensing technologies for geotechnical monitoring were comprehensively reviewed and discussed in detail.Finally,the challenges and countermeasures of the sensing technologies in geotechnical monitoring were also presented and discussed.
