Abstract
`Cortland' and `Delicious' apples were stored at 0C for up to 25 weeks, and at 20C in either open boxes or non-sealed poly bags for up to 8 weeks. At 20C, lesions occurred mostly around lenticels, but with some calyx bronzing and scald-like symptoms on shaded areas. At 0C, typical scald symptoms occurred. At both temperatures, high concentrations of alpha-farnesene and conjugated trienes occurred in conjunction with symptom appearance, and both these concentrations and discolorations decreased with later harvest of fruit. Scald development appeared to be chilling-enhanced, but not chilling-dependent.
