Abstract

Chilling sensitivity of eggplant fruit after harvest was examined in relation to soil moisture and fertilizer application during cultivation.<br>Chilling sensitivity was higher in fruit grown under wet conditions throughout the period of fruit development than that under dry conditions. When soil moisture was changed from a dry to a wet condition 3 days before harvest, high chilling sensitivity was observed in the fruit after harvest. Chilling sensitivity of eggplant fruit seemed to be considerably affected by soil moisture just before harvest.<br>Chilling sensitivity seemed to be higher in the fruit grown with insufficient nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers than that under the conventional application. A double application of these fertilizers had little effect on the chilling sensitivity. No consistent trend of chilling sensitivity was observed in the fruit grown under different applications of potassium fertilizer.
