Popis: ABSTRACT Recent studies have shown that passive modified atmosphere storage (MA) delays the ripening of ‘Laetitia’ plums but it increases the incidence of internal browning in comparison to cold storage (CS), possibly due to high CO2 and/or ethylene accumulation inside the package. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of active MA conditions [LDPE film (40 µm)] with CO2 absorber combined with low ethylene (LE) on ripening and quality preservation of ‘Laetitia’ plums during storage at 0.5ºC±0.1ºC and RH of 96%±2%. The treatments evaluated were cold storage (CS; 21.0 kPa O2 +
