“…This variation did not have deleterious action on the fruits, it showed that both packages were permeable to these gases, which allowed gas exchanges with the environment, avoiding the occurrence of physiological imbalances that could have a negative effect on the quality of the fruits during the 14 days of storage (Oliveira et al, 2014;Rinaldi et al, 2017b). As for the phytosanitary evaluation, fruits kept at 10 °C did not show symptoms of infestation by any post-harvest pathogens during the 14 days of storage (Benato et al, 2002;Junqueira et al, 2003;Muniz et al, 2003;Arruda et al, 2011a). The result confirms the reports of Junqueira et al (2003), Arruda et al (2011a), Rotili et al (2013a), Rotili et al (2013b) and Rinaldi et al (2017b) who also reported a significant reduction in the incidence of post-harvest pathogens in sweet, yellow, and setacea passion fruit stored under refrigeration, regardless of whether they were wrapped in plastic films or not.…”
