摘要
Kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa var. Hayward) flesh softening, the conversion of starch to sugars, and soluble solids content accumulation in response to temperature and exogenous ethylene applications have been studied for the last three seasons. The result of this research is a ripening protocol which deals with pre-conditioning kiwifruit prior to shipment (packers/shippers) by using ethylene and temperature combination treatments. The preconditioning treatment triggers the ripening process which continues during storage/transit. This protocol allows the California kiwifruit industry to deliver "ready to eat" kiwifruit early in the California season (September-December).
