“…No firmness differences were found in two years (2011 and 2012), and a significant difference, although of only 2 N, was identified in 2013. A study assessing the influence of six rootstocks on the TSS of 'Forelle' pears found that the differences in TSS at harvest were very small and did not exceed 0.5 • Brix within two years [10]. TSS differences were also small in our study.…”

Late pear cultivars, such as ‘Conference’, can be stored for a long period if kept in good storage conditions. A three-year study (2011–2013) compared the impact of six-month storage using four technologies—normal atmosphere, normal atmosphere + 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), controlled atmosphere, and controlled atmosphere + 1-MCP—on the quality parameters of ‘Conference’ pears, such as mass loss, firmness, total soluble solids, acidity, antioxidant capacity, and the incidence of diseases and disorders. Additionally, the study analysed different storage conditions in terms of profitability, based on the market prices for pears in the seasons during which the pears were stored. The storage conditions had a very strong influence on the fruit quality parameters, and were found to affect most visibly the mass loss and the incidence of postharvest diseases and disorders. The storage of ‘Conference’ pears for 180 days in normal atmosphere is not economically viable, even if the fruit is subjected to 1-MCP treatment; at the same time, it is profitable to store ‘Conference’ pears in controlled atmosphere for the same period, no matter whether 1-MCP was applied or not.

“…Sometimes, however, as in the case of apples, other factors may contribute, such as the rootstock used, which, by affecting the nutrition of trees, can influence the properties of the stored fruit [10]. Temperature is a factor that crucially influences the rate of any reaction, in particular, of respiration-related reactions [11].…”

“…The storability of pear, which is a typical climacteric species [3], depends on various factors [4], most notably, the optimal harvest date [5], the fruit cooling rate after harvest [6], the degree of pollination [7], storage conditions [8], fertilization and health [9]. Sometimes, however, as in the case of apples, other factors may be in play, such as the rootstock used, which, by affecting the nutrition of trees can influence the properties of the stored fruit [10]. Temperature is a factor that crucially influences the rate of any reaction, in particular, of respiration-related reactions [11].…”

Late pear cultivars, such as ‘Conference’, can be stored for a long period, with their storability depending on storage conditions. A three-year study (2011-2013) compared the impact of half-year storage using four technologies – normal atmosphere, normal atmosphere + 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), controlled atmosphere, controlled atmosphere + 1-MCP – on the quality parameters of ‘Conference’ pears, such as mass loss, firmness, total soluble solids, acidity, antioxidant capacity, and the incidence of diseases and disorders. Additionally, the study analysed different storage conditions in terms of profitability, based on the market prices for pears in the seasons during which the pears were stored. The storage conditions had a very strong influence on the fruit quality parameters, and was found to affect most visibly the mass loss and the incidence of postharvest diseases and disorders. The storage of ‘Conference’ pears for 180 days in normal atmosphere is not economically viable, even if the fruit is subjected to 1-MCP treatment.
