Abstract

Abstract Cabbage ( Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.) was stored for 6 months at 1°C in 100, 85 and 75% relative humidities under 2 atmospheric regimes: normal air and 5% CO 2 –2.5% O 2 with the balance N 2 (controlled atmosphere, CA). Disease, direct weight and color losses were less at 100% relative humidity than at either 85% or 75% relative humidity. CA treatments showed less disease and had better green color than corresponding air treatments for all humidities. Based on high humidity air storage as the control treatment, the ‘Harris Resistant Danish #277 (HRD) showed a greater response to high humidity CA storage in terms of color retention than ‘Green Winter’ (GW). However, GW was the better adapted of the 2 cultivars to all storage treatments tested in that it deteriorated less rapidly.
