Summary

Ultra-low oxygen (ULO)-storage caused a marked reduction on the ability of fruit to produce volatiles. Feeding these fruits with several alcohols and aldehydes as aroma precursors, stimulated the biosynthesis of volatiles. Similar to ULO-storage, AVG reduced the production of volatiles and this effect was accentuated during the storage of these fruits in ULO. Treating AVG-fruit with aroma precursors also led to a marked increase in the production of the corresponding volatiles. With ULO stored as well as with AVG-treated fruits, the effect of precursor treatment on volatiles was transient lasting, in general, not more than 2 days.
