The kinds of volatiles in tomato fruits during storage were increased with the period of
climacteric rise The increasing and decreasing rate of their contents were slower under subatmospheric pressure-low temperature (SAP-L) than under normal atmospheric pressurenormal temperature (NAP-N). High contents of 2-hexanone, n-pentanol, and ethanol were decreased at the earl- period of storage and then increased. The content of n-octanol and furfural were increased, while that of n-butanol, cyclohexanone, and phenylacetaldehyde was decreased during storage. On the other hand, the content of trans, trans-2, 4-decadienol, benzyl alcohol, and 2-heptanone was not changed during storage.
