Synopsis

The effects of time and temperature on the postharvest quality of fruits and vegetables are visually depicted in the Color Atlas of Postharvest Quality of Fruits and Vegetables. Through hundreds of vibrant color photographs, this unique resource illustrates how the appearance (e.g., color, shape, defects and injuries) of fruits and vegetables changes throughout their postharvest life and how storage temperature greatly contributes to critical quality changes.

The book's extensive coverage describes 37 different fruits and vegetables from different groups that were stored at five specific temperatures and photographed daily after specified elapsed periods of time.

Individual fruits and vegetables from the following groups are covered:

• subtropical and tropical fruits
• pome and stone fruits
• soft fruits and berries
• cucurbitaceae
• solanaceous and other fruit vegetables
• legumes and brassicas
• stem, leaf and other vegetable
• and alliums
