ABSTRACT
Peaches are easily bruising during all stages of postharvest handling, maturity can affect the characteristics and detection of bruising, which is directly related to the quality and shelf life of peach. The main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of maturity on the early detection of postharvest bruising in peach based on structured multispectral imaging (S-MSI) system. The S-MSI data was measured for bruised peaches, followed by microstructural (CLSM), and biochemical (oxidative browning-related enzyme activities, gene expression, and phenolic compound metabolism) measurements. As the maturity increases, the external impact stress could further induce the accumulation of phenolics through the phenylpropane pathway and pulp oxidative browning, resulting in more pronounced external damage; and the spectral reflectance value of bruised peach was getting smaller, and the spectral waveform gradually flattened out. Three characteristic bands of 781, 824, 867 nm were selected from structured spectra (669-955 nm) related to bruising. The watershed algorithm was adopted for bruise detection, the detection rates for bruised peaches based on three maturity levels (S1-S3) were 91-92%, 90.71-97.43%, and 97.14-99.86%, respectively. This research demonstrated that S-MSI system coupled with watershed algorithm, can enhance our capability of detecting the early bruised peaches of different maturity levels.
