Fruit storeability and physio biochemical changes during postharvest ripening of 3 kiwifruit [Actinidia deliciosa (A.Chev) C.F. Liang et A.R.Ferguson] clones were compared and studied. The results are as follows: The respiration peak of the fruits appeared in 7 days after the harvest of kiwifruits.Followed by that, fruit firmness decreased rapidly,and the soluble solids and total sugars increased while,Vitamin C and total acids decreased gradually until the fruits reached full ripe. The clone of better storeability had lower respiratory int...
