Fig. 8From: Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals distinct ethylene–independent regulation of ripening in response to low temperature in kiwifruitOn–vine fruit ripening characteristics in kiwifruit. ‘Sanuki Gold’ kiwifruit were left attached to the vines after commercial harvesting date (indicated by the black arrow). Flesh firmness and SSC (a), ethylene production and titratable acidity (b) were determined using fruit that did not produce any detectable ethylene (five independent biological replicates).
