Summary

At each of 3 harvest dates, approximately 150 fruits from a randomized block of 5 trees were harvested. Samples were scored for water core at harvest and during cold storage at 0.5 deg C for 28 days. Mean water core scores at harvest were 0.47, 0.72 and 1.43 for fruits harvested on 16, 22 and 28 April, respectively. There was a rapid loss of water core during cold storage in fruits harvested on 16 April. Irrespective of harvest date and severity of water core at harvest, most water core had disappeared within 80 days of harvest when fruits were held at 0.5 deg C.
