Summary

Changes in the odour-active volatile compounds produced by 'Gala' apples were measured after 4, 10 and 20 weeks' storage at 1 °C in regular atmosphere (RA) or controlled atmosphere (CA), and 16 weeks in CA followed by 4 weeks in RA. Aroma was evaluated using the gas chromatography-olfactometry method Osme. Production of volatile esters decreased along with corresponding fruity aromas during CA storage.
