Overview

Mutagenesis enhances shelf life and fruit quality in papaya, indicating potential for better crop resilience.

Key Points

  • Gamma irradiation improved shelf life, with some mutants lasting up to 15 days after harvest.
  • The best performing mutants showed minimal post harvest weight loss, with R16P18 at 5.69%.
  • Fruit quality enhancements included higher TSS values and better surface texture in specific mutant lines.
  • These findings suggest potential advancements in papaya cultivation and post harvest management.
