Type of article: Article
Summary
The work shows that eggplants harvested during winter (December-January) were more susceptible to chilling injury than those harvested during spring (March-April). Storing disinfected eggplant fruits inside an unperforated polyethylene bag enabled them to be stored at 8 deg C for more than three weeks without sustaining any chilling injury, whereas disinfected but unbagged control fruits showed severe chilling injury.
