This volume
is based on the presentation of a workshop held in Babtai, Kaunas, Lithuania
in June, 2001. It contains a number of articles with valuable information on
the application of recent techniques and the development of methodologies.
The impact of environmental factors on food crop quality, including handling
parameters, quality evaluation, CA and MAP storage conditions worldwide, are
also addressed. The book covers the entire spectrum of activities in the
area of fruit and vegetable and few other plant products, e.g. medicinal,
including production yields, and quality assessment. This book should
interest researchers and the lay readers.
