Summary

Pieces (18 x 35 mm cylinders) were prepared from sanitized fruits of four honeydew melon varieties (Green Flesh, Morning Ice, Rico, RML 2704) harvested at typical commercial maturity. Pieces were stored in air or controlled atmosphere (air + 15% CO2) at 5 deg C and evaluated for sensory quality, firmness, colour and soluble solids concentration after 0, 6 and 12 days.
