Résumé

Mature green banana fruit were stored in an atmosphere consisting of 0.5%, 2%, 5%, 10% O2 in N2 or in air (21% O2) for 8 weeks at 14 °C. Following storage in low O2 atmosphere, the fruit were transferred to ambient at 25 °C and allowed to ripen naturally or induced with 250 ppm ethylene for 24 hours. Berangan banana can be stored for 8 weeks in 2% O2 and 5 weeks in 5% O2 atmospheres at 14 °C. Exogenous ethylene treatment at 250 ppm drastically shortened the preclimacteric period and skin colour development was rapid and uniform. Respiratory quotient indicates the occurrence of a slight incident of anaerobic metabolism in fruit stored in 0.5% O2 atmosphere. Total sugar and starch contents of ripe fruit after storage in low O2 atmosphere were also discussed.
