摘要：Fruits of muskmelon /'Cucumis melo, L cv. Asuka) grown under hydrophonic condition were harvested 37 days after anthesis and stored at room temperature (25 - 2SPC) and at 6 - SPC. The physicochemical characteristics of the fruits during storage were evaluated. The major limiting deteriorative change during storage at room temperature was softening of the fruits. Fruits stored at room temperature had a shelf-life of about 5 days while those stored at 6 - SPc were acceptable for 3 weeks. The pH and titratable acidity did not change much during storage. There was a slight decrease in total soluble solids and total soluble sugars during storage.
