Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of enclosing kale leaves in PE-bags on leaf weight loss, water loss rate and chlorophyll index in two kale genotypes (cv. ‘Red Russian and ‘Konavle 2’ which is a Croatian local population). The experiment was consisted of six replications with three leaves per treatment at room temperature (22oC ; 50% RH) for five days. Non-bagged leaves of both genotypes, after 5 days, had more than 50%, while bagged leaves had only 17% of water loss. Water loss rate was higher in ‘Red Russian’ than in “Konavle 2’ only in non-bagged leaves. Enclosing leaves in plastic bags reduced the rate of leaf water loss resulting in increased shelf life of kale leaves.
