“…Waxes may have a more marked effect on inhibiting transport of gases than transport of water through the cuticle in citrus fruit (Ben-Yehoshua et al, 1985). The mode of action by which external or internal gases may alter the susceptibility of citrus fruit to develop peel damage remains unknown, though postharvest treatments modifying internal gas composition or the O 2 environmental levels may also modify non-chilling peel pitting susceptibility (Petracek et al, 1998;Ben-Yehoshua et al, 2001;Porat et al, 2004). Our results showing that treating the fruit with ethylene favours exudation of new waxes that may cover in part cracks and stomata and the fact that stomata coverage alters resistance to gas diffusion in citrus tissues (Calatayud et al, 2006) encourages new studies along these lines.…”

“…Chinese cabbage should be stored at 98-100% relative humidity (Émond et al, 1995), which can be attained by technological strategies such as controlled or modified atmospheres; for example, 90-100% humidity has been obtained by use of perforated polyethylene bags (Émond et al, 1995;Porat et al, 2004;Yang et al, 1993). The gas composition inside the bags is another important issue (Brecht et al, 2003;Hodges and Toivonen 2008); the most important gas is the plant hormone ethylene.…”

“…Bagging of entire stems, inflorescences, or leaves with micro-perforated plastic film also helped stems maintain RFW for longer ( Figure 4C) and extended the vaselife of inflorescences (Table I). Bagging can improve the water status of cut Grevillea 'Crimson Yul-lo' stems by reducing water loss from inflorescence evapotranspiration and leaf transpiration, as found following the bagging of broccoli inflorescences (Brassica oleracea L., Toivonen, 1997), and apple (Watkins and Thompson, 1992) and citrus (Porat et al, 2004) fruit.…”
