Summary

Daminozide [butanedioc acid mono-(2-2-dimethylhydrazide)] applied in the field reduced the electrical impedance of McIntosh apple fruit at harvest and after storage. Vacuum infiltration with calcium chloride (CaCl2) increased the impedance whether fruit were treated with daminozide or not.
