Fruits contain enormous source of vitamins that provides energy to the human body. These are also affluent in essential and vital vitamins, minerals, fiber, and health-promoting components, which has led to an increase in fruit consumption in recent years. Though fruit consumption has expanded considerably in recent years, the use of synthetic chemicals to ripen or store fruits has been steadily increasing, resulting in postharvest deterioration. Alternatives to synthetic chemicals should be considered to control this problem. Instead of utilizing synthetic chemicals, this study suggests using natural plant products to control postharvest decay. The aim of this study indicates how natural plant products can be useful and effective to eliminate postharvest diseases rather than using synthetic chemicals. Several electronic databases were investigated as information sources, including Google Scholar, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, Semantic Scholar, MEDLINE, and CNKI Scholar. The current review focused on the postharvest of fruits has become more and more necessary because of these vast demands of fruits. Pathogen-induced diseases are the main component and so the vast portion of fruits get wasted after harvest. Besides, it may occur harmful during harvesting and subsequent handling, storage, and marketing and after consumer purchasing and also causes for numerous endogenous and exogenous diseases via activating ROS, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, etc. However, pathogenicity can be halted by using postharvest originating natural fruits containing bioactive elements that may be responsible for the management of nutritional deficiency, inflammation, cancer, and so on. However, issues arising during the postharvest diseases must be controlled and resolved before releasing the horticultural commodities for commercialization. Therefore, the control of postharvest pathogens still depends on the use of synthetic fungicides; however, due to the problem of the development of the fungicide-resistant strains there is a good demand of public to eradicate the use of pesticides with the arrival of numerous diseases that are expanded in their intensity by the specific chemical product. By using of the organic or natural products for controlling postharvest diseases of fruits has become a mandatory step to take. In addition, antimicrobial packaging may have a greater impact on long-term food security by lowering the risk of pathogenicity and increasing the longevity of fruit shelf life. Taken together, natural chemicals as acetaldehyde, hexanal, eugenol, linalool, jasmonates, glucosinolates, essential oils, and many plant bioactive are reported for combating of the postharvest illnesses and guide to way of storage of fruits in this review.
水果含有丰富的维生素来源，能为人体提供能量。它们还富含必需和重要的维生素、矿物质、纤维以及促进健康的成分，这使得近年来水果的消费量有所增加。尽管近年来水果消费量大幅增长，但使用合成化学物质来催熟或储存水果的情况却在稳步上升，导致采后变质。应该考虑使用合成化学物质的替代品来解决这个问题。本研究建议不使用合成化学物质，而是使用天然植物产品来控制采后腐烂。本研究的目的是表明天然植物产品如何能够有效消除采后病害，而不是使用合成化学物质。研究调查了几个电子数据库作为信息来源，包括谷歌学术、PubMed、科学网、Scopus、ScienceDirect、SpringerLink、语义学者、医学在线数据库和中国知网学者。由于对水果的巨大需求，目前对水果采后情况的综述变得越来越必要。病原体引起的病害是主要因素，因此大量水果在收获后被浪费。此外，在收获以及后续处理、储存、销售过程中可能会出现有害情况，在消费者购买后也可能出现，并且通过激活活性氧、氧化应激、脂质过氧化等引发多种内源和外源病害。然而，通过使用含有生物活性成分的采后天然水果可以阻止致病性，这些生物活性成分可能有助于解决营养缺乏、炎症、癌症等问题。然而，在将园艺产品投放市场之前，必须控制和解决采后病害期间出现的问题。因此，采后病原体的控制仍然依赖于合成杀菌剂的使用；然而，由于杀菌剂抗性菌株的发展问题，随着许多病害因特定化学产品而加剧，公众对根除农药使用的需求很大。使用有机或天然产品来控制水果采后病害已成为必要步骤。此外，抗菌包装通过降低致病性风险和延长水果保质期，可能对长期粮食安全产生更大影响。综上所述，本综述报道了乙醛、己醛、丁香酚、芳樟醇、茉莉酸酯、硫代葡萄糖苷、精油和许多植物生物活性物质等天然化学物质可对抗采后病害并指导水果储存方法。
