Produce Facts is a series of fact sheets published by the UC Postharvest Technology Research and Information Center summarizing the latest recommendations for maintaining postharvest quality of horticultural perishables. Each fact sheet will include information about maturity and quality indices, optimum temperature and relative humidity, rates of respiration and ethylene production rates, responses to ethylene and controlled atmospheres, physiological and pathological disorders: causes and control, and other relevant information. Periodic updates of these fact sheets will be published as new information becomes available. Our goal is to publish Produce Facts for all the major fruits, vegetables, and ornamentals. If you have information that should be added or any questions or comments about a specific fact sheet, please communicate directly with the senior author. |
