Effect of cold storage on volatile constituents of peaches and nectarines.

Author(s) : RIZZOLO A., VANOLI M., VISAI C.

Summary

Peach (cultivars Redhaven and Glohaven) and nectarine (cv. Maria Laura) fruits were harvested at commercial maturity and stored at 0 deg C and 95% relative humidity for 4 weeks. Volatiles were analysed by headspace and GC/MS analysis at harvest and after 2 and 4 weeks of storage. Glohaven peaches showed the best storage quality as they maintained the highest production of volatiles, mainly lactones, up to the end of storage.
