Influence des conditions d'entreposage et de la date de récolte sur l'aptitude à l'entreposage et la qualité de certains cultivars de prune (Prunus domestica L.).

The effect of storage conditions and date of picking on storability and quality of some plum (Prunus domestica L.) fruit cultivars.

Auteurs : PLICH H.

Résumé

The high rate of flesh softening and susceptibility of internal breakdown are the main limitations of the market life of plum fruit. Plum softening was effectively controlled when the storage room temperature was maintained as low as possible without freezing the tissue. Restriction of fruit transpiration by placing fruit in polyethylene bags reduced the incidence of skin shrivelling. The susceptibility of plum cultivars to physiological disorders was influenced by fruit maturity at harvest. Good temperature management and early picking are essential, if fresh plums are to survive a long-term cold storage in acceptable conditions.
