Changes in the microflora of apples during ripening and cold storage.

Few reports seem to have been published about the numbers and types of bacteria and yeasts that may be found on apples. Indeed, only one study has been made of the types of yeasts found on Quebec apples picked late in the autumn; and there seems to be only one report about changes in the microflora of apples during the ripening season in England. The significance of a study such as this is important with respect to the keeping quality of the fruit, the production of cider, and the preparation of canned products, such as apple sauce and apple juice.
