Effect of CO2 in storage atmosphere on mill olive fruit physiology

Olive fruits (Olea europaea) used for oil production were stored at 5 °C and four different atmospheres (%CO2/%O2/%N2: 0/21/78; 5/20/75; 10/19/71 and 20/17/63). At 5 °C the enrichment of the storage atmosphere with > 5% CO2 concentrations produced a proportional increase of the physiological diso...
