Qualité des potirons : influence de la composition de l'air et de la température lors de l'entreposage.

Quality of winter squash affected by storage air composition and temperature.

Résumé

Spaghetti squash (Cucurbita pepo) fruit were stored in modified or controlled atmospheres of roughly the same composition (i.e. 5 or 10% CO2 in 5% O2) and in air at two different relative humidities at 4 and 10 °C. Storage quality was evaluated. Both atmosphere modification techniques produced similar results. Low relative humidity resulted in the best quality fruit. There were no beneficial effects of 5 or 10% CO2 over air. The incidence of decay after a week at 20 °C was higher in fruit stored at 4 than at 10 °C, implying chilling injury.
