Effets des traitements après-récolte sur la durée de conservation et la qualité des abricots.

Effects of postharvest calcium treatments on shelf-life and quality of apricot fruit.

Résumé

Fruits of 4 cultivars were dipped in 0, 2 or 4% calcium chloride for 30 minutes at 25 deg C, stored at 2 deg C for 9 days, then kept at 20 deg C for 2 days. Fruits dipped in 2% calcium chloride were firmer than undipped fruits, but those dipped in 4% calcium chloride were softer. Respiration rate and ethylene production decreased in fruits dipped in calcium chloride. However, there were phytotoxic effects with both treatments.
