Table S2: Evaluation of postharvest quality parameters across the accessions panel: Average of % WL and CI Index and Standard Errors (SE). Haplotype of the 4 significant SNPs identified in the GWAS analysis for PI accessions (Ref/Alt). Pink color indicates reference genotype, white color heterozygous, green color alternative genotype. Table S3: Antioxidant capacity of FRAP experiment (expressed in µg/mgDW) and MDA content (expressed in ng/mgDW). Data correspond to average and the SE. Different letters indicate significant differences between the accessions during cold storage (ANOVA, p ≤ 0.05).
