Effet des pulvérisations de CaCl2 avant récolte sur la qualité après récolte des fraises 'Rainier' et 'Totem'.

Effect of preharvest CaCl2 sprays on the postharvest quality of 'Rainier' and 'Totem' strawberries.

Résumé

The test results show that calcium-treated fruit appear to be more stable in terms of firmness and soluble solids content changes in air and modified-atmosphere storage. These results indicate that preharvest CaCl2 foliar sprays have minor effects on strawberry quality and retention of quality during short-term storage. 'Totem' appears to respond to calcium sprays to a greater extent than 'Rainier'.
