Blueberry water loss is related to both cuticular wax composition and stem scar size
Y Yan, SD Castellarin - Postharvest Biology and Technology, 2022 - Elsevier
The contributions of the cuticle and stem scar to blueberry water loss were evaluated in four
cultivars. Among the cultivars, 55–69% of the water loss occurred through the cuticle …
