摘要：

'Rainier' cherries, with and without gibberellic acid treatment were subjected to radiation at dose levels of 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, and 1.0 KGy and held for 14 and 21 days at IC before removal from storage and quality determined. No variation in fruit or stem color, soluble solids, titratable acidify or sensory difference was noted at any of the radiation dose levels. There was 13% loss in firmness due to radiation treatment between 0.4 and 1.0 KGy. Cherries that were treated with gibberellic acid were superior candidates for radiation treatment. 'Rainier' cherries can be irradiated as soon as quality parameters have reached acceptable levels for commercial harvest.
