Effect of increasing nitrogen fertilizer rates on cherimoya (Annona cherimola Mill) cv. Concha Lisa fruits in refrigerated storage.

Author(s) : UNDURRAGA P. L., OLAETA J. A., MARNICH M. L.

Summary

Application rates of 4.14-6.72 kg N/tree resulted in the lowest soluble solids contents and fruit pulp firmness values, and the highest titratable acidity values. With increasing duration of storage, titratable acidity and pulp firmness decreased, while soluble solids content increased. The results suggest that N application at or above 4.14 kg N/tree impairs storage quality and organoleptic properties after storage.
