자두 '대석조생'의 생육단계별 수확시기 및 저온저장 온도에 따른 저온장해과 발생 양상과 품질 특성을 구명하고자 하고자, 자두 '대석조생'을 60%, 80% 그리고 90% 이상의 착색율로 구분하여 수확한 후, 1, 4, 5, 그리고 에 최대 48일간 그리고 에서 3일간 숙성시키면서 호흡 변화, 품질 특성 및 저온 장해과 발생 양상을 조사하였다. 60% 착색기에 수확한 자두를 보다 낮은 저온에 저장하였을때 경도, 색도, 중량감소율과 적정산도의 유지

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of and chilling injury development in 'Ooishiwase' plum fruits after harvest, according to the ripening stage and storage temperature. The fruits were harvested at three ripening stages (60, 80, and >90% skin color) and were then stored at 1, 4, 5, 6, and cold-storage rooms for up to 48 days. The fruit quality parameters, respiration patterns, and chilling injury development were monitored during the storage periods and the three days of subsequent ripening at . The fruits harvested at the 60%-skin-color stage maintained the flesh firmness, color, weight loss, and TA, and their respiration rates and ethylene production were decreased compared with the 80%-or >90%-skin-color fruits, at a lower storage temperature. The major symptoms of chilling injuries in the Ooishiwase plums were gel breakdown, flesh browning, and flesh translucency. These symptoms appeared at all the low-storage-temperature and ripening treatment stages. When the fruits, however, were harvested at a more immature stage and were stored at a lower storage temperature, the chilling injury development decreased. These results show that the development of chilling injury in Ooishiwase plums is related to the climacteric behavior during cold storage.
