摘要
Musk melons, Cucumis melo L. var. reticulatus Naud., (commonly referred to as cantaloupes) stored for 14 days in 20% CO2 21% O2 at 5°C plus 3 days in air at 20°C, had less stem scar mold, surface mold, and flesh decay than those held in air or in 5 or 10% CO2 21% O2. Forty percent CO2 21% O2 appeared to injure the melons and cause off-odors and off-flavors. Storage in 1, 2, 4 or 8% O2 for 14 days did not reduce mold growth, as compared with air storage. © 1979.
