Pollen germination at lower storage temperatures remained at the reasonable rate but gradually declined with increasing storage period.
However, when the pollen of Brassica napus L. was stored at 3 or 10 °C, the seed number was decreased with increasing storage period (Lyakh et al. 1998).
In our study, when pollen of P. Little Gem Stripes stored at both − 20 and − 80 °C after 96 weeks remained viable (Figs. 3, 4), and the pollination capability and amount of seeds were gradually reduced following by increasing storage period (Tables 1, 2) but was still better than those at 4 °C.
The starch content of mango pulp was found to decrease significantly (P < 0.01) from 12% to 4.3% with the increasing storage period at 30 ± 1°C till 12th day of storage).
Generally, the TBARS of cooked turkey meat sausage increased during storage period and reached the maximum after 15-day storage except for concentrations 0.25% and 0.50% which reached their maximum after 20 and 25 storage days, respectively).
The introduction of component therapy where red cells are separated from plasma by centrifugation and the development of preservative solutions containing saline, mannitol, glucose, and adenine (e.g., SAGM) which were added to the separated erythrocytes, increased the storage period of red cell concentrates to 42 days when stored at 1°C to 6°C [ 5].
For the same dose of pectin, with increasing of storage period was recorded an increase in depreciation of antioxidant characteristics.
Kinematic viscosities of all samples were found to be increased with increase in storage period.
Fatty acid ethyl esters (biodiesel) from B. carinata oil were very stable because they did not demonstrate rapid increase in peroxide value, acid value, and viscosity with increasing storage time to a period of 12 months.
Polyunsaturated and health claimable FA levels also tended to decline with increasing chilled storage period, albeit insignificant within the constraints of the experimental design.
