Multifactorial analysis of the effects of pre and postharvest treatments on the quality of stored tomato

摘要

This study attempted to explain the effect of combined pre and postharvest treatments [preharvest treatment (PHT) with a natural catalyst ( ComCat ???? ), disinfection and packaging (DP) and storage environment (SE)] on some quality parameters of stored tomato, using multifactorial statistics.
