Grapefruit from orchards subjected to freezing temperatures or below developed a higher incidence of rots, particularly stem-end rots, following prolonged storage when compared with fruit not subjected to frost. Valencia oranges exposed to similar low temperatures did not show an increase in the incidence of rots, following storage.
