Influence of Gaseous Ozone Treatments on Mechanical and Chemical Properties of Japanese Quince Fruits During Storage

Chaenomeles japonica (Chaenomeles japonica Thunb. Lindl. ex Spach.) is gaining increasing attention due to its high nutritional value and potential for industrial use. The develop- ment of new breeding clones (potential new cultivars) with improved morphological and chemical properties is essential for enhancing its commercial cultivation. In this study, the impact of ozone in its gaseous form and cold storage on the morphological and chemical properties of newly selected Polish clones of...
