Abstract

Pomegranate fruit of the cultivar Hicaz, grown under Mediterranean climatical conditions in Antalya, Turkey, were harvested in mid-October after fungicide treatment and stored in three different temperatures (6 degrees C, 8 degrees C, 10 degrees C) and three different storage atmospheres (1.5% CO(2-)3.0%O-2; 3.0% CO2-3.0% O-2; 6.0% CO2-3.0% O-2).
