Abstract
⺠Romaine lettuce is perishable and susceptible to quality decay during storage. ⺠Romaine lettuce leaves were stored in light (2500 lux) or darkness at 4 °C for 7 d. ⺠Light exposure preserved chlorophyll, soluble sugar and total soluble solid content. ⺠Light resulted in more accumulation of ascorbic acid and dry matter than darkness. ⺠Fresh weight loss was accelerated by light condition.
