Postharvest changes in strawberry fruit stored under simulated retail display conditions.

'Cardinal' strawberry fruit were placed in plastic boxes with plastic dome lids (PDL) or with polyethylene wrap (PE), warmed to 25 degrees C for 8 h and stored at 1 degree C or 5 degrees C to simulate retail storage temperature conditions. For all treatments, fruit held at 5 degrees C decayed and deteriorated more than fruit held at 1 degree C. During storage at 1 degree C or 5 degrees C, fruit in boxes with PE accumulated CO2 (0.75-2% CO2/mg), had less weight loss and better color retention than fruit in boxes with PDL. After 3 days of storage, precooled strawberries exposed to 8 h of warming had more weight loss and worse appearance than fruit held continuously at 1 degree C; these differences were not apparent after 7 days.
