title: Pre-Harvest Treatment of Chitosan Oligosaccharides Improved Strawberry Fruit Quality
abstract: Chitosan oligosaccharide (COS), derived through hydrolysis of chitosan, has been proved to be an effective plant immunity elicitor, eco-friendly, and easily soluble in water, and influenced several secondary metabolites content to improve fruit qualities. COS are widely used in agriculture to improve the defense response in plants. The purpose of this study was to investigate the pre-harvest treatment effect of COS on the quality of strawberry (<i>Fragaria</i> × <i>ananassa cv.</i><i>qingxiang</
