Postharvest Biology and Technology

Here, we used long-read sequencing technology in combination with RNA-seq analysis to investigate the diversity and complexity of the litchi transcriptome, as well as transcripts that are differentially expressed in the four different postharvest stages of litchi fruit. We obtained a reference transcriptome with 50,808 unique full-length isoforms.

The file contains data from all the experiments used and listed in the manuscript. The qPCR analysis, calculations and standards are also listed in the file, in different tabs.

The Microsoft Excel Worksheet provided as supplementary data for this article include the following data sets: Mean (n=3) semi-quantitative SPME GC-MS volatile composition data (ng g-1) of fresh-cut and stored watermelon samples and p-value for comparison of various processing and packaging treatments (Table 1), PTR-MS mass fragmentation patterns and relative abundance of chemical reference standards of volatiles found in watermelon (Table 2), and normalized mean (n=2) of PTR-MS data for fresh-cut watermelon samples at different processing, packaging and storage conditions (Table 3).

Each folder inside the banana image dataset folder contains a banana tier with its six side images. The number corresponds to its sampleID. There are 194 banana tier subjects with six images corresponding to its side views: front, left, right, back, top and bottom. A total of 1,164 banana images. The banana_features.csv shows the extracted features: RGB (red, green, blue) color values, the image side view, class and finger size. There are four class values with its respective numerical value (1: ‘extra class’, 2: ‘class II’, 3: ‘class I’, 4: ‘reject’) and there are 65, 49, 30 and 50 samples per class, respectively. Note that the finger size feature was taken by manually measuring the length of the top middle finger of a banana tier ("hand") in millimeter (mm). This specific finger was assumed to have a regular size compared to other fingers. This dataset can be used for machine learning classification of banana based on its features. In addition, the available images can be used for automating the manual measurement of the top middle finger size.

This supplementary material explained how the basic modelling tool was used to design the experimental MAP system.

This dataset contains the data used for statistical analysis and predictive modelling in the paper entitled "Revisiting CA Protocols and Their Effect on Hormonal Flux in Asparagus". Specifically it contains physiological and biochemical changes in asparagus spears from three different cultivars during cold storage under different CA and DCA regimes and subsequent shelf-life. Physiological changes include moisture loss, respiration rate, cutting energy, objective colour. Biochemical data include individual sugars, abscisic acid and its catabolites. Also the data capture spatial differences along the asparagus spears (apical and basal regions).
