Visual appearance score
To measure the effect of storage on fresh-cut peach sensory traits (color, visible structural integrity and visual appearance) at each storage period, six replicates for each landrace and time sampling date were scored by six trained judges, using a subjective 5–1 rating scale with 5 = very good (just sliced), 4 = good, 3 = fair (limit of marketability), 2 = poor (limit of usability) and very poor 1 (inedible). A color photograph (Fig. 1) of slices rated was used to score all single slices (Amodio et al., 2007; Gorny et al., 1999).
