Abstract

The application of ethoxyquin (6-ethoxy-1,2-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline) as late as 6 weeks after harvest controlled scald effectively on Delicious and Winesap apples. Applications of 2,700 ppm ethoxyquin by immersion, by spraying and brushing, with or without additional detergent, and 2,000 ppm diphenylamine were all effective but not significantly different in controlling scald on Delicious apples. The effectiveness of immersion application of ethoxyquin on Stayman, Winesap and Delicious apples was not significantly reduced by washing fruit 3 days after treatment. Thoroughly drying fruit by brushing after spray application of ethoxyquin did not significantly reduce protection.
