Postharvest Sensory and Phenolic Characterization of ’Elegant Lady’ and ’Carson’ Peaches
High quality fruits are increasingly demanded along with the need to ensure this attribute to consumers. Thus, this study was aimed at characterizing a melting (’Elegant Lady’) and a non-melting flesh (’Carson’) peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) varieties by...

Cultivars were evaluated at harvest (F0) and after 30 d of cold storage (F30), as well as after a maturation period at 20 °C for both F0 and F30 (R0 and R30, respectively). Fruit weight, flesh firmness, soluble solid content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), and background color (Hue) were recorded at each stage.
