Abstract(s)
Apple Bravo de Esmolfe original from the parish of Esmolfe is cultivated in specific regions of Portugal. This cultivar of
medium to low production requires very low temperatures, but it is extremely sensitive to frost. The aim of this work was to evaluate
the influence of modified atmosphere on the quality of apple (cv. Bravo de Esmolfe) during cold storage. Apples packed in modified
atmosphere lost less weight, presented better colour, and preserved better firmness than fruits stored in air.
