description | The increase in solar radiation and temperature as a result of climate change and variability has increased sunburn damage to fruits, which highly affects quality and yield in tropical and subtropical fruit plants. Solar injuries increase because of conditions with low relative humidity, fruits left uncovered by foliage, and plantations at higher altitudes as a result of increased UV radiation. Three different types of sunburn on fruits are distinguished: photooxidative sunburn, sunburn browning, and necrosis on the epidermis. Fruits employ self-protection mechanisms against this stress through the production of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants. Fruit growers try to mitigate the impact of sunburning by planting species and varieties that are tolerant to this stress, pruning and training plants, leaving enough leaves above the fruit, efficient irrigation and intercropping for shading. More technical sunburn mitigation strategies include 1) improving the microclimate (shading nets, fruit bagging, evaporative cooling), 2) suppressors (kaolinite clay particle films, calcium carbonate) or 3) chemical protection (tocopherol, abscisic acid, ascorbic acid, anti-transpirants). This paper presents the state of research and its results for this abiotic stress in some tropical and subtropical fruit trees, such as avocado, banana, citrus, mango, pineapple and pitaya, along with observations for other fruit trees in tropical altitude zones. Continued research is recommended for this stress in different varieties with the use of environmentally friendly protective materials, along with studies on molecular mechanisms that direct the acclimatization of plants to a combination of these two types of stress, excessive radiation and temperature. |

El aumento de la radiación solar y la temperatura debido al cambio climático y la variabilidad climática causan un incremento en los daños por el golpe de sol en los frutos que afecta altamente la calidad y los rendimientos de los frutales de origen tropical y subtropical. Las lesiones solares aumentan todavía por condiciones de baja humedad relativa, frutos descubiertos del follaje y en plantaciones de mayor altitud por el aumento de la radiación UV. Se distinguen tres diferentes tipos de golpe de sol en el fruto: quemaduras solares fotooxidativas, oscurecimiento por quemadura solar y la necrosis sobre la epidermis. Los frutos emplean mecanismos de autoprotección contra este estrés mediante la producción de antioxidantes enzimáticos y no enzimáticos. El fruticultor trata de mitigar el impacto con la plantación de especies y variedades tolerantes a este estrés, realizando podas y con la conducción apropiada de la planta dejando suficientes hojas sobre el fruto, un riego eficiente o con la siembra de cultivos intercalados que sombrean. Las estrategias de mitigación de los efectos del golpe de sol más tecnificadas incluyen medidas 1) que mejoran el microclima (polisombras, embolsado del fruto, enfriamiento evaporativo), 2) supresores (filmes de partículas de arcilla de kaolinita, carbonato de calcio o 3) una protección con químicos (tocoferol, ácido abscísico, ácido ascórbico, anti-transpirantes). Se presenta el estado de investigación y sus resultados en este estrés abiótico en algunos frutales tropicales y subtropicales estudiados como el aguacate, banano, citrus, mango, piña y pitaya, además de observaciones en otros frutales en el trópico alto. Se recomienda seguir investigando este estrés en las diferentes variedades y con el uso de materiales protectoras amigables al ambiente, además de estudiar los mecanismos moleculares que dirigen la aclimatación de las plantas a una combinación de estos dos tipos de estrés, excesiva radiación y temperatura.
