soaking, or the presence of crystals or crystalline

two or more segments, as shown on the separation of 
the segments, one from another, of a section, not less 
than 1 inch or more than 1% inches in thickness, of 
the central portion of the fruit, obtained by cutting 
off a portion of each end, the evidence of freezing 
injury to show for the entire length but not neces- 
sarily the entire area of the surface membranes. 
(3) Spray burn, which materially changes the 
color of the affected portion, or when the scarring: 
aggregates more than 114% inches in diameter. 
(4) Fumigation injury, when occurring as thinly 
scattered specks over a segment comprising more 
than one half of the fruit surface, or solid scarring 
aggregating more than 1 inch in diameter. 
(5) Ammoniation, when occurring as thinly scat- 
tered specks over a Segment comprising more than 
one half of the fruit surface, or solid scarring (not

(8) Scale, when concentrated as a ring or blotch, 
or when thinly scattered over more than 50 percent 
of the fruit surface. 
(9) Sunburn, when the affected portion exceeds 
one third of the fruit surface, or is hard or discolored, 
or the fruit decidedly one-sided. 
(10) Dryness, when extending into segments more 
than one half inch at the stem end, or more than the 
equivalent of this amount by volume, when occurring 
in other portions of the fruit.
