This suggests that LTC can
provide very effective protection against damage during short duration storage at very low temperatures. Li et al.
[12] reported similar responses in litchi, where pre-treatment of fruits at 5˚C for 5 days improved subsequent
storage behavior at 1˚C and increased the shelf life of fruits after storage. Other reports on LTC in fruit are limited,
but numerous studies have shown that heat treatment before cold storage of a range of fruit can reduce
damage on removal from storage
