Abstract

Results of an experiment with Fuji apple variety indicated that CA storage delayed fruit softening significantly,and reduced the endogenous ethylene content,thus prolonged the fruit storage life up to 8 months and maintained its good quality;the main cause of flesh browning of Fuji apple during storage was the elevation of CO2 concentration,however,the reduction of O2 concentration aggravated the flesh browning;too long storage and senescence induced flesh browning of Fuji apple as well;the combination of 2%CO2 with 5%O2 was recommended CA storage conditions for Fuji apple.
