| Abstract: | In the field of postharvest quality assessment of horticultural products, research on the development of non-destructive quality sensors, replacing destructive and often time consuming sensors, has spurred in the last decennium offering the possibility of taking repeated quality measures on the same product. The flexibility of mixed models, both towards the repeated measures design of the experiments as towards the large inter- and intra product biological variability inherent to these horticultural products, is an important advantage over classical techniques. In this lecture the benefits of mixed models to describe quality behavior of horticultural produce will be illustrated with several practical examples in the field of pre- and postharvest technology. |
