Summary

After storage at chilling temperature (2 deg C), the control fruits developed more chilling injury, and had greater weight loss and a higher rate of potassium ion leakage than treated fruits. The protective effect of paclobutrazol against chilling injury of bell peppers may result from a combination of its effect on fruit morphology and protection of the lipids against oxidative stress.
