Summary

Peach cv. Flordaking and June Gold fruits were harvested at 3 stages of maturity identified by background colour and were analyzed immediately after harvest, or after 3 or 6 days at 20 °C. Some fruits were kept at 8 °C for 24 h, and were then bruised with a 10 or 20 cm steel ball at different points. Optimization of harvest period is studied for each cultivar.
