p-values: Diet 0.202; Storage period < 0.01; Interaction (diet × storage period) = 0.043.

Standard error of the mean for a* parameter = 2.608.

a, b, cMeans in the same row with different letters differ according to Tukey test (p < 0.05) and express the effect of the diet.

A, B, CMeans in same row with different capital letters differ by Tukey test (p < 0.05) and express the effect of the period of storage.
