Abstrakt: BSTRACT Delayed Light Emission as an Indicator of Peach Maturity. W. R. Forbus, Jr. and G. G. Dull. USDA-ARS, Richard B. Russell Agricultural Research Center, P. O. Box 5677, Athens, GA 30613. Keystone, Loring, and Nectar peaches were evaluated to determine relationships between delayed light emission (DLE) and physical and chemical properties that have been shown to be related to peach maturity. Results showed that DLE was highly correlated with average maturity rank (r = 0.96) for all three cultivars. DLE can provide an effective, nondestructive technique for measuring peach maturity.
