Firm-ripe peaches (Prunus persica cv. 'Changhowon Hwangdo') were stored at 0, 5, and 8℃ for up to 7 weeks. Weekly samples were withdrawn and held at 20℃ for 3 days. Quality parameters of weight loss, flesh firmness, juiciness, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), chilling injury (CI), CO₂ production, C₂H₄ production, and sensory characteristics were monitored. Storage at 0℃ maintained flesh firmness and juiciness, as well as reducing weight loss and CI. Peaches at 0℃ expressed less CI than those stored at 5 and 8℃ during the storage periods and remained free of CI symptoms for up to 4 weeks of storage.
