Résumé

The effects of elevated O2 alone or in combination with elevated CO2 atmospheres for postharvest decay control on strawberry fruit (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) were assessed. In vitro and in vivo growth of Botrytis cinerea Pers.:Fr. and the effects on fruit quality were determined under eight atmospheres: air, 40, 60, 80, 90 and 100 kPa O2, 40 kPa O2 + 15 kPa CO2 and air + kPa CO2. The commercially-used CO2 level of 15 kPa in air and its combination with 40 kPa O2 were most effective in suppressing mycelial growth in vitro following 7 days at 5 °C under the atmospheres. However, after 14 days of treatment at 5 °C, 100 kPa O2 inhibited mycelial growth more than either of the CO2 treatments.
