Postharvest fruit respiration and soluble sugars changes of Sechium edule Swartz.

The respiration rates of fresh and commercially harvested S. edule fruits during 12 days' storage at 5, 15 or 25 deg C were 3-4, 6-8 and 20-25 mg CO2 kg-1 h-1. Respiration rates increased when fruits stored at 5 or 15 deg were subsequently transferred to 25 deg . TSS content was significantly higher in fruits stored at 5 deg than those stored at 15 or 25 deg . Fructose and glucose constituted >90% of the soluble sugars of mesocarp tissue, regardless of storage temperature. In sprouted fruits (fruits in which the exposed seed at the base of the fruit had germinated), raffinose and sucrose contents were higher in the cotyledons and seed-coat than in the mesocarp, shoot or roots.
