Summary

FRUIT FROM THE CULTIVARS UC-82 AND GIMAR, NOR2 HYBRIDS AND ROMA (CONTROL SAMPLE) WERE STORED AT 278 AND 285 K (5 AND 12 DEG C) AND EXAMINED AFTER 30, 60 AND 90 DAYS STORAGE. THE HYBRIDS STORED BETTER THAN THE CULTIVARS BUT FRUIT DECAY WAS EVIDENT AFTER 30 DAYS, ALTHOUGH AFTER 60 DAYS THE QUALITY OF YELLOW-PINK HYBRIDS WAS AS GOOD AS NORMAL RED CULTIVARS. A 285 K STORAGE TEMPERATURE WILL EXTEND THE STORAGE LIFE OF RED AND YELLOW-PINK FRUIT, WHEREAS 278 K IS SUITABLE FOR ONLY RED FRUIT AND FOR NOT LONGER THAN ONE MONTH.
