Summary

BING CHERRIES FROM LIGHTLY (LC) AND HEAVILY (HC) CROPPED TREES WERE HARVESTED AT WEEKLY INTERVALS, SUBJECTED TO IMPACT DAMAGE (BRUISING), AND STORED AT 277 K (4 DEG C) FOR UP TO 28 DAYS IN 1982 AND 12 DAYS IN 1983. CHERRIES FROM LC TREES WERE FIRMER AND RIPER. AT A GIVEN COLOUR WITHIN THE RANGE OF COMMERCIAL SHIPPING MATURITY, CHERRIES FROM HC TREES WERE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO BRUISING, WERE SOFTER, AND HAD LOWER CONCENTRATIONS OF SOLUBLE SOLIDS, ACID, AND DRY MATTER.
