Abstract

Abstract Low relative humidity (73%–80%) and high relative humidity (94%) lowered the initial rate of calcium penetration from postharvest dip into the tissues of ‘Spartan’ apple fruits (Malus domestica Borkh.). Moderate storage relative humidity (87%) resulted in the most rapid initial uptake of calcium by the tissues. The effect of humidity on calcium movement into the fruit tissue decreased with time in storage.
