Abstract: Fruits of Litchi cultivars Ziniangxi and Xiaodingxiang were used for the experiment to determine the storability at low temperature in relation to some physiological activities. Results indicated that Ziniangxi has a better storage capability. During storage at low temperature (5±1)oC, relative electric conductivity, pH value, PPO and POD activities of litchi pericarp increased, whereon anthocyanin and general hydroxybenzene decreased. At the same time, Xiaodingxiang had higher value in relative electric conductivity, pH value, PPO and POD activities and anthocyanin content, Ziniangxi had higher value in general hydroxybenzene content.
