Effect of harvesting date and postharvest calcium treatment on stored apple quality.

ABSTRACT :

 

In trials on 5 apple cultivars, treating trees with foliar sprays of calcium or fruits by dipping them in calcium chloride solutions increased the fruit Ca content and fruit firmness compared with untreated controls. The incidence of bitter pit and scald were also reduced. Increasing the interval between flowering and harvest also reduced the incidence of physiological disorders although fruit Ca content did not vary with harvesting date. In fruits stored for 180 days, bitter pit was at a maximum after 60 days, whereas scald manifested itself during the final month of storage.
