Kiwifruit preconditioning protocol.

Kiwifruit cv. Hayward flesh softening, the conversion of starch to sugars, and soluble solids content accumulation in response to temperature and exogenous postharvest ethylene applications were studied for 3 seasons. The result of this research was a ripening protocol (ethylene applied at 100 ppm for 6-12 h to cold fruits using the 'shot' or 'flow-through' systems) for pre-conditioning kiwifruits prior to shipment, triggering the ripening process, which then continues during storage/transit, allowing the Californian kiwifruit industry to deliver ready-to-eat fruits early in the Californian season (September-December).
