Abstract excerpt
Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) fruit is sensitive to temperatures below 10 °C, which severely diminish fruit quality during cold chain distribution. Seed browning was a major chilling symptom in 36 genotypes of C. annuum fruit screened after storage at 2 °C for 3 weeks. Among them, pepper fruits of chilling-insensitive 'UZB-GJG-1999-51' and -sensitive 'C00562' were treated at 2 °C for 0 or 24 h, respectively....
