Summary

According to the tests reported, the most desirable temperature for long-term storage for both 'Ponkan' and Tankan was 15 °C. Lowering the storage temperature to 12.5 °C reduced weight losses and improved the appearance of both fruits, but seemed more hazardous for developing off-flavours. Closing bags by loosely folding the open ends was a safe bagging method. Tightly twisting the bag opening resulted in less weight loss and better fruit appearance, but caused more off-flavoured fruits.
