Özet

The objective of this study is to determine the effects of heat applications on fruit quality during the storage. Golden Delicious and Starking Delicious apple varieties used in this research were obtained from the Vineyard Research Institute located in Tekirdag. Research was carried out with three replications in randomized block design with split plots. Apples were treated with heat for 4 days at 38°C and then stored in Institute's cold air chambers under the conditions of 0°C with 85-90% relative humidity. During the heat application high weight loss occurred in fruits. This application was found to be effective on the firmness of the fruits during storage. The mean application was responsible of ripening by increasing the respiration rate and the starch degradation rate in fruits. © 2006 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
