Sucrose Metabolism in Netted Muskmelon Fruit during Development.
Sugar content and composition are major criteria used in judging the quality of netted muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. var reticulatus) fruit. Sugar composition and four enzymes of sucrose metabolism were determined in ;Magnum 45' muskmelon fruit at 10-day intervals beginning 10 days after pollination (DAP) until full-slip (35 DAP). Sugar content increased in both outer (green) mesocarp and inner (o...
متن کاملAn Antisense Pectin Methylesterase Gene Alters Pectin Chemistry and Soluble Solids in Tomato Fruit.
Pectin methylesterase (PME, EC 3.1.11) demethoxylates pectins and is believed to be involved in degradation of pectic cell wall components by polygalacturonase in ripening tomato fruit. We have introduced antisense and sense chimeric PME genes into tomato to elucidate the role of PME in fruit development and ripening. Fruits from transgenic plants expressing high levels of antisense PME RNA sho...
متن کاملAnalysis of spatially resolved hyperspectral scattering images for assessing apple fruit firmness and soluble solids content
Hyperspectral scattering is a promising technique for nondestructive sensing of multiple quality attributes of apple fruit. This research evaluated nd compared different mathematical models for describing the hyperspectral scattering profiles over the spectral region between 450 nm and 000 nm in order to select an optimal model for predicting fruit firmness and soluble solids content (SSC) of ‘...
متن کاملPostharvest fruit density as an indicator of dry matter and ripened soluble solids of kiwifruit
The density of unripe kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa (A. Chev.) C.F. Liang et A.R. Ferguson cv. Hayward) early in storage was investigated as a means of determining the current fruit dry matter (DM) and total sugar-plus-starch concentrations, and of predicting DM and soluble solid concentrations later when the fruit had ripened. To investigate the robustness of the density relationships with DM...
متن کاملMultispectral imaging for predicting firmness and soluble solids content of apple fruit
Firmness and soluble solids content (SSC) are important quality attributes for apples and many other fresh fruits. This research investigated the feasibility of using multispectral imaging to quantify light backscattering profiles from apple fruit for predicting firmness and SSC. Spectral images of the backscattering of light at the fruit surface, which were generated from a focused broadband b...
