Résumé

In this paper, response to cold storage at two very different temperatures and to marketing conditions are shown. Late harvested fruits were cold stored at 2 or 8 °C and 90-95% relative humidity (RH) for 5, 10 and 15 weeks; after each cold storage period, an additional week of shelf life conditions at 20 °C and 75% RH was simulated. Determination of weight loss, decayed fruits, evolution of CO2 and C2H4 main chemical parameters of the juice and assessment of overall, visual appearance and chilling injury incidence were carried out. Fruits stored at 2 °C appeared to be resistant to chilling injury and stored better than those held at 8 °C. On the other hand, a more pronounced loss of product due to rots was registered for 2 °C cold stored fruits. The taste of fruits was always judged acceptable. Most of the chemical parameters were affected only by storage duration. In particular, the vitamin C content underwent a 15% loss from harvest to the end of the trial.
