Fruits treated with 1.0 mM melatonin showed improved shelf life and firmness compared to controls.
Melatonin treatment significantly reduced total soluble solids and physiological loss in weight during storage.
The study indicates that melatonin minimizes post-harvest disease incidence, particularly anthracnose in bananas.
The application of exogenous melatonin may provide a sustainable approach for managing post-harvest banana quality.
