STUDY OF STORAGE ABILITY OF INTRODUCED TABLE GRAPE VARIETIES EARLY RIPENING CULTIVATED IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE RUSSIA SOUTH
The article presents the results of determination of the chemical composition of 6 introduced early ripening table grapes, grown under the conditions of the Taman zone. The dynamics of the change in qualitative indicators (intensity of ethylene escape, content of solids, sugars, acids, vitamins) was studied during the storage of grapes under the conditions of the usual atmosphere at a temperature of + 2-4 ºC. At short-term (2 months) storage, the greatest preservation of commercial qualities and vitamins was observed in Attica and Furshetny varieties, that is these varieties possess the high biological ability to storage.
