Effects of a Delay in Storage and Calcium Chloride Dip on Surface Disorder Incidence in ‘Van’ Cherry1

Year: 1979

Type: article

Abstract: A delay in storage at 0°C prior to impact damage decreased the incidence of surface disorders due to mechanical damage in ‘Van’ cherries ( Prunus avium L.). A 4% CaCl 2 plus 0.25% Keltrol postharvest dip reduced the incidence of pitting and surface marking at all delay periods after dipping.
