    The rapid acceleration of ripening during ambient storage is a primary factor limiting the shelf-life of bananas. Application of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) has been used to enhance the postharvest quality of perishable commodities. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of MeJA (10<sup>−3</sup> M) encapsulated in liposomes (MeJA-liposomes) on the postharvest quality of ‘Kluai Khai’ bananas (Musa AA) during storage at room temperature (26 ± 2 °C) for 9 d The MeJA-liposomes exhibited an average particle size of 152.37 ± 1.63 nm with a PDI of 0.21 and a zeta potential value of -33.9 ± 1.02 mV. The MeJA-liposomes treatment exhibited a greater delay in fruit ripening and peel colour development compared to the MeJA (10<sup>−3</sup> M), blank-liposomes, and control treatments, respectively. MeJA-liposomes reduced the oxidative stress of the peel by decreasing electrolyte leakage, lipoxygenase activity, and the levels of malondialdehyde, α-fanesene, conjugated triene (CT-281) and H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> in the fruit peel. As the ripening process in untreated bananas progressed, they exhibited greater antioxidant activities, namely in terms of ferric reduction antioxidant capacity and DPPH radical scavenging activity in the peel, compared to the MeJA-liposome-treated bananas. The application of MeJA-liposomes treatment resulted in a postponement in the process of softening and an increase in the levels of total soluble solids content, and BrimA in the banana pulp throughout the storage period. In conclusion, the application of MeJA-liposomes presents a promising method for postponing the ripening process, alleviating the oxidative response in the peel and prolonging the shelf-life of ‘Kluai Khai’ bananas (Musa AA) at room temperature.

    The rapid ripening and senescence are the main problems of ‘Surcrier’ bananas during marketing. This study examined the impact of a short-term anoxia treatment on the physicochemical characteristics of ‘Sucrier’ bananas during refrigeration (15 °C), followed by exposure to 25 °C for 2 days. The anoxia treatment delayed the increases in the weight loss, and pulp-to-peel ratio as well as the pulp softening during refrigeration and after shifting to 25 °C compared to the untreated bananas. Moreover, at the end of refrigeration, the yellow color value (YCV) was 0.149 for control and 0.122 for anoxia-treated fruits. Meanwhile, on day 21+2, the YCV values increased to 0.246 for control and 0.275 for anoxia-treated fruits. Electrolyte leakage, malondialdehyde, and hydrogen peroxide levels were found to be reduced by the increased capacity of 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging in the peel. This suggests that anoxia treatment may be able to mitigate physiological damage and senescent spotting in ‘Sucrier’ bananas during cold storage and subsequent ambient temperature. The total soluble solids (TSS) content in control fruit increased from 5.25 % to 22.00 % after storage, while anoxia-treated fruit exhibited an increase in TSS content to 18.67 %, resulting in a delay in fruit ripening. In addition, the investigation revealed that the treatment of anoxia improved the antioxidant capacity of banana pulp by augmenting the total phenolic content and DPPH scavenging in the pulp. According to the results of this study, it is most beneficial to employ anoxic treatment prior to storage in terms of both fruit ripening and quality considerations.
