Abstract
Abstract Three peach [ Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.] and one nectarine [ P. persica var. Nectarina (Ait.) Maxim.] cultivars were stored in a controlled atmosphere (CA) or air at 0°C for 9 weeks. At 3- or 6-weeks intervals fruits from certain of these storage atmospheres were shifted to air at 18.3°C for 2 days and then returned to CA or air at 0°C. Fruits stored in CA retained better quality and had lower respiration rates than those stored in air. Within a given storage atmosphere fruit quality was often even better and respiration (of CA stored fruit) usually was further reduced when the temperature had been raised to 18.3° for 2 days during the 0° storage. Skin browning frequently developed during ripening at 18.3°. This disorder and decay remain serious problems for successful long-term storage.
