Résumé

The potential for low-temperature conditioning to reduce external damage of 'Hass' avocados was examined. Avocados harvested in early summer were conditioned at temperatures of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 15 °C for a period of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 days before 3 weeks storage at 0 °C. Three days after removal from cold storage, external damage was rated, and internal quality assessed after ripening at 15 °C. The optimum temperature/time combinations were 6 or 8 °C for 3-5 days prior to 0 °C storage. Ripe-fruit quality was also highest in these treatments.
