Fruit metabolic responses to controlled atmosphere O2 and CO2 stress

Author: Jim Mattheis, Dave Rudell

Published: 2012

Summary: The objectives of this project were: 1. Identify volatile compounds that accumulate during CA storage. 2. Characterize volatile compound dynamics during storage in atmospheres that induce low O2 and/or high CO2 injury. 3. Determine if recognition of changes in volatile compound production during low O2 or high CO2 stress has utility for CA system management. 4. Develop sampling protocols to enable detection of biomarkers for scald and other disorders.
