Preharvest Factors Affecting Quality on “Abate Fetel” Pears: Study of Superficial Scald with Multivariate Statistical Approach by Alessandro Bonora, Enrico Muzzi, Cristiano Franceschini, Alexandra Boini, Gianmarco Bortolotti, Kushtrim Bresilla, Giulio Demetrio Perulli, Melissa Venturi, Luigi Manfrini, Luca Corelli Grappadelli

“…Others can decrease SS such as climatic and management factors: late harvest dates, rain, gibberellins, calcium, manure, absence of antihail nets or use of photoselective nets, and site (probably related to better soils toward the Adriatic coast). Initial preharvest variability is an important factor that modulates physiological plant stress and, subsequently, the SS after cold storage in “Abate Fetel” pears. …”
