Abstract
Outward diffusion of CO2 from ‘Stevens’ and from native seedling cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) collected in 1971 and held 6 months at 3°C proceeded at the rate of 4.55 and 2.56 μl/cm2-hr, respectively. The rate of movement of O2 into ‘Stevens’ was 2.64 and for a native seedling was 3.28 μl/cm2-hr. For cranberries collected in 1972 and held 1 month at 3°C the respective values for CO2 were 1.48 and 1.53 and for O2 they were 3.09 and 3.65 μl/cm2-hr.
