  1. aAccessions with very slow, slow, and intermediate rates of deterioration are acceptable for fresh-cut processing, while those with rapid and very rapid rates of deterioration are unacceptable. Thus, all accessions with the acceptable rate of deterioration are called slow deteriorating (or having a slow rate of deterioration), while those with the unacceptable rate of deterioration are called rapidly deteriorating (or having a rapid rate of deterioration). The ratings were based on combined results from over 30 experiments performed during 10 years with more than 800 accessions.
