Summary

After different experiments on apples inoculated with Erwinia, at different levels of CO2 and O2 in modified atmosphere packaging, it was found that high CO2 atmospheres can slow the growth of B. cinerea and that Erwinia sp. was an effective antagonist against B. cinerea growth on apples, particularly under ambient conditions.
