Résumé

Red beetroots (Opolski and Rocket cvs) were kept in a cold store at 0.5 and 2°C. Two types of packaging were used: traditional plastic boxes and polyethylene film bags. After 6 months of storage, beetroots kept in plastic bags had slight weight loss, whereas a decline in dry weight and soluble sugars in their roots was twice that of beetroots kept in boxes. The pigment content in beetroots decreased during storage but betanine revealed a greater resistance to destruction than vulgaxantine. This led to a change of beetroot colours towards more amaranth shades.
