Influence of storage temperature and coating on the keeping quality of 'Fortune' mandarins.

ABSTRACT

The effects of temperature (2, 5, 7 or 10 deg C), waxing (10% polyethylene), film wrapping (0.018-mm thick) and intermittent warming (5 or 6 h at 20 deg ) during storage at 5 deg , on the postharvest quality of fruits were investigated. Storing at 2 or 5 deg caused chilling injury and increased ethanol and ACC concentrations. Weight loss was less with film wrapping than with waxing. Film-wrapped fruits stored at 10 deg C or 5 deg C with intermittent warming (16 h/week at 20 deg ) maintained good quality after 8 weeks' storage.
