Abstract
Fumigation with 32 g/m3 methyl bromide (MeBr) for 2 hr at 23.9–25°C followed by a minimum 60 days of storage at −0.56°C in either standard cold or controlled atmosphere storage destroyed all live larvae of Laspeyresia pomonella (L.), in apples. In contrast, some unfumigated larvae survived the entire holding period (120 days) in both types of storage. Unacceptable damage to the fruit, including surface scalding, accentuation of bruises, and accelerated breakdown during storage occurred when ‘Red Delicious’ or ‘Golden Delicious’ apples were fumigated with 48 or 64 g/m3 MeBr.
