Other claims from this paper (14)
- Association At 20°C, decay by stem-end rot increased rapidly after 60 days of storage.
- Association At 2°C, decay by penicillium mold increased after 120 days of storage.
- Association At 5°C, decay by penicillium mold increased after 160 days of storage.
- Association At 2°C, respiration showed a pronounced decrease soon after storage began.
- Association Below 6°C, ascorbic acid and sugar concentration of juice remained approximately the same as before storage.
- Association Below 6°C, total acids and sugar concentration decreased remarkably, even in undecayed fruit at the end of storage.
- Association At 2°C, volatile substance evolution increased with the development of chilling injury.
- Association CO2 production of fruit transferred to 20°C increased for the first 8-12 hours.
- Association CO2 production of fruit transferred to 20°C then decreased.
- Association Low temperature during storage resulted in a notable decrease of chemical compositions in juice after transfer to 20°C.
- Intervention effect Naturalization (gradual warming) prevented the rapid rise of respiration compared with direct transfer to 20°C.
- Intervention effect Naturalization gave fewer decayed fruits and a smaller decrease of chemical compositions than direct transfer to 20°C.
- Association At 2°C, fruit showed symptoms of chilling injury from the middle of April.
- Association At 20°C, marked shriveling appeared on the peel of fruit.
