. . Additional index words. CaCl2, Malus domestics, Botrytis cinerea, pressure infiltration Abstract. 'Golden Delicious' apples (Malus domestics Borkh.) were treated with heat or CaCl2 solutions or a combination thereof to determine the effects of these treatments on decay and quality of fruit in storage. Heat treatment at 38C for 4 days, pressure infiltration with 2% or 4% solutions of CaCl 2, or a combination of both, with heat following CaCl 2 treatment affected decay and firmness during 6 months of storage at 0C. The heat treatment alone reduced decay caused by Botrytis cinerea (Pers.:Fr.) by 30%, while heat in combination with a 2% CaC12 solution reduced decay by 60 %. Calcium chloride solutions of 2% or 4% alone reduced decay by 40 % and 60 %, respectively. Heat treatments, either alone or in combination with CaC1 2 treatments, maintained firmness (80 N) best, followed by fruit infiltrated with 2% or 4% solutions of CaClz alone (70 N) and the nontreated controls (66 N). Instron Magness-Taylor and Instron compression test curves show that heat- treated fruit differed qualitatively and quantitatively from nonheated fruit. Heat treatment did not increase the amount of infiltrated Ca bound to the cell wall significantly, and a combination of heat treatment after CaCl 2 infiltration increased surface injury over those fruit heated or infiltrated with CaCl 2 solutions alone.
