Rice aged artificially with technologies such as microwave, ultrasound, radiofrequency, infrared, steaming, and heating exhibited physicochemical and technological characteristics close to those observed in the natural aging of rice, especially in cooking properties. The main changes observed in rice grains were milling, cooking, textural, and pasting properties.

These chemical compounds offer innovative approaches to controlling stored product insects, which pose significant threats to global food security by infesting and degrading grains and stored food products. This review delves into different kinds of semiochemicals, their action mechanism, and their applications in insect control methods, including mass trapping, mating disruption, attract-and-kill, and push-and-pull strategies. Recent advancements at the molecular level, particularly in understanding pheromone receptors, have enhanced insights into insect recognition and response to chemical signals. Different kinds of semiochemicals and their roles in managing stored grain pests belonging to <em>Coleoptera</em>, <em>Lepidoptera</em>, and <em>Psocoptera</em> are discussed. Additionally, the effectiveness of various pheromone-based traps, such as sticky, funnel and cone, pitfall, and light-activated traps, in grain storage monitoring are discussed, along with insights from field and laboratory case studies. Integration of pheromone traps with biological, chemical, and mechanical control methods is examined to highlight the potential for holistic pest management strategies. Despite their effectiveness, challenges such as environmental variability and species-specific responses persist. Future directions emphasize innovations in pheromone synthesis, trap design, and interdisciplinary approaches to enhance scalability and applicability across diverse storage ecosystems. This review underscores the critical role of semiochemical-mediated techniques in reducing stored product losses, offering a sustainable and effective alternative to chemical pesticides.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17019,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Stored Products Research","volume":"113 ","pages":"Article 102674"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143928186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even moderate impacts can lead to internal damage, significantly affecting the shelf life and quality of the fruit. In recent years, technologies such as spatial frequency domain imaging and structured light reflection imaging have made progress in early damage detection. However, considering both economic feasibility and practical applicability, there remains a need to explore accurate and quantitative methods for damage assessment. To address this issue, this study constructed a 3D model of ‘Red Fuji’ apples through physical experiments and reverse engineering. Explicit dynamic simulations based on the finite element method were conducted to evaluate the mechanical damage under various impact conditions. A total of 125 simulation scenarios were designed by combining five impact heights, five impact angles, and five contact materials. Key data and visual representations of stress evolution were obtained from the simulations. Results indicated that the highest damage susceptibility occurred when apples impacted steel at a height of 20 cm and an angle of 135°, while the lowest damage susceptibility was observed when impacting polyvinyl chloride at a height of 15 cm and an angle of 90°. Furthermore, a response surface methodology was employed to analyze the quantitative values of damage susceptibility. The maximum discrepancies between experimental and simulated results in terms of damage depth, area, and volume were 0.90 cm, 2.94 cm², and 11.85 cm³, respectively. The prediction error of damage susceptibility ranged from 0.883 to 11.3 %. The consistency of the damage patterns further validates that the finite element model can effectively simulate apple damage under specific impact scenarios.
