Bioactive essential oils as sustainable postharvest technology: suppression of sprouting and preservation of physicochemical quality in cold-stored potato tubers

Sprouting during storage represents a principal postharvest constraint for potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.), driving physiological weight loss, quality deterioration, and severe loss of marketability. Furthermore, recent regulatory restrictions on synthetic suppressants, such as ch...
