A STUDY ON TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION IN CABBAGE TISSUES SUBJECTED TO FREEZING TEMPERATURES. PART 1. EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS.

Author(s) : MARCOTTE M., et al.

Summary

THE TIME-TEMPERATURE PROFILES OF COOLING AND FREEZING AND THE ENTHALPY OF FUSION WERE STUDIED IN THE CORE (CENTRAL PITH), THE APEX (LEAF MERISTEM) AND THE MIDRIB AND LEAF BLADE PARTS OF THE INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL HEAD LEAVES OF CABBAGE (BRASSICA OLERACEA L. VAR. < CAPITATA > L.), IN VIEW OF IDENTIFYING THE CAUSES OF PHYSIOLOGICAL DISORDERSOCCURRING UPON STORAGE, POSSIBLY AS A RESULT OF FROST INJURY. THE OBTAINED RESULTS EXPLAIN THE PREFERENTIAL OCCURRENCE OF PHYSIOLOGICAL SYMPTOMS IN THE CENTER OF CABBAGE HEADS IN THE SO-CALLED < RED HEART > DISORDER OBSERVED IN STORED CABBAGE.
