Harvest Date Influence Scale Development in 'Granny Smith' Apples During Long Term Storage

In this study, the effects of harvest date on scald development of ‘Granny Smith’ apples (Malus x domestica Borth.) were investigaated. Apples were harvested at 15 day intervals and stored at 0 0C with 90% relative humidity for 8 months. The percentage oif scald was lower for late harvested (November 15) apples than apples harvested early (October 15). The fruits harvested early reached climacteric maximum earlier than the frutis harvested late. Among of weight losses, titratable acids and soluble solids varied among different harvest dates. The loss of chorophyll was faster for the fruit harvested late than apples harvested early. The percentage of decay was lower for the fruits harvested early.
