Abstract
Tufted apple bud moth (TABM) damage had little or no effect onthe soluble solids, starch, or firmness of stored apples. Decay increasedfrom 0% to 18% in `Golden Delicious' and from 2% to 6% in `Delicious' between control fruit and those with the most TABMdamage (> 10 mm aggregate diameter, significant linear relationships R 2 = 0.41 and 0.12, respectively). Weight loss increased 2- to 3-fold in apples in the highest damage category. These results show that the post-storage quality of apples with slight TABM damage (<5 mm aggregate diameter) does not decline more rapidly than undamaged fruit. The best controlled atmospheres for storing undamaged fruit were also the best for storing damaged fruit. Widely varying fungicide spray programs did not influence the quality or decay levels of apples following storage. However, even those fruit from blocks with few or no sprays had very little decay due either to low inoculum or unfavorable environmental conditions.
