Notes:
Green beans grown under different cultural conditions and packed in #25 and #50/25 R-enameled cans with variations in vacuum and pH and with added Cu, Fe, NaCl, NO3 and NO3 with PO, were visually examined for pitting after storage at 38°C and room temperature. The #25 cans and those with high levels of Cu, Fe NO3 and with low pH values had the most severe pitting. High can vacuum exhibited a protective effect against pitting during short term storage at room temperature. Pitting severity was not affected by heavy Cu(OH)2 sprays during the growing season, but there was an effect between cultivars.
