ISHS Acta Horticulturae 275: International Symposium on the Culture of Subtropical and Tropical Fruits and Crops

POSSIBLE ROLE OF STOMATA IN TRANSPIRATION OF AVOCADO FRUIT

Authors:   M.M. Blanke, J.P. Bower
Abstract:
Browning i.e. mesocarp discolouration of avocado fruit is a sales impediment, particularly for export to overseas markets. Since browning is a physiological disorder without pathogen involvement, stomata on avocado fruit are discussed with respect to their potential in regulating both respiration and transpiration of the fruit and the transpiration stream to the fruit.
