After removal from storage, decay of the grapes was measured after 0-, 1-, 2-, 3- or 6-day holding-periods at 20°C. Each increase in ripeness was related to a greater amount of decay development either during or after storage. Grapes of any ripeness level could be stored at 0°C with 10% or less decay for 1 week; the next-to-least-ripe class of grapes could be stored for 3 weeks; and the least-ripe (sol. solacid ratio of 14.2) could be stored for 5 weeks. However, if 2 days at room temperature (20°C) after 0°C storage were added to simulate fresh-marketing exposure, only the least-ripe ones could be stored acceptably for 1 week at 0°C (without storage supplements).}, number={3}, journal={SCIENTIA HORTICULTURAE}, author={BALLINGER, WE and MCCLURE, WF}, year={1983}, pages={241–245} } @article{ballinger_nesbitt_1982, title={Postharvest decay of muscadine grapes (Carlos) in relation to storage temperature, time, and stem condition}, volume={33}, number={3}, journal={American Journal of Enology and Viticulture}, author={Ballinger, W.

Total Acy content was positively related to the intensity of surface coloration (white red to blue to purple). Neither Acy nor flavonol content was related to the geographic origin of the fruits, thus supporting the theory of common taxonomic classification. Three Acy were identified in these fruits, monoglycosides of the sugars galactose, arabinose, or glucose with the aglycone cyanidin. The monoglycosides of galactose and arabinose were found in all samples. The monoglycoside of glucose was found in trace amounts but was not found in all samples. Fruits of V. stamineum appear promising for introduction as a new crop or for incorporation into the breeding-program for commercial blueberries.}, number={2}, journal={SCIENTIA HORTICULTURAE}, author={BALLINGER, WE and MANESS, EP and BALLINGTON, JR}, year={1981}, pages={173–178} } @article{ballinger_mcclure_nesbitt_maness_1978, title={Light-sorting muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia Michx) for ripeness}, volume={103}, number={5}, journal={Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science}, author={Ballinger, W.
