| Popis: | Fruit from a range of seedling selections of Actinidia arguta, or hybrids between A. arguta and A. melanandra were compared for fruit growth, maturation, and postharvest storage. Timing and duration of the flowering period varied. Long fruit had greater maximum growth rates than round fruit, but the timing of maximum growth (25–30 days after anthesis (DAA)) tended to be similar for all selections and was similar to that for other Actinidia species. A smaller second peak in growth rate occurred around 60–80 DAA. Fruit on the vine progressed from a slow to a rapid increase in soluble solids concentration, typical of commercial kiwifruit. This occurred at the time when temperatures in New Zealand are at their highest (February), indicating a primarily physiological cause for an increase in soluble solids concentration rather than a response to lowered temperatures as generally postulated for commercial kiwifruit (A. deliciosa). Maximal dry matter accumulation also varied according to selection, with... |
