Pigment and plastid ultrastructural changes in Kumquat (Fortunella margarita)«Nagami» during ripening

S Huyskens, R Timberg, J Gross - Journal of plant physiology, 1985 - Elsevier
The oval kumquat (Fortunella margarita)«Nagami» is a citrus relative belonging to the Ru·
taceae family. Pigment changes in the whole fruit were investigated at four stages of
ripening. During ripening the chlorophylls gradually decreased, disappearing completely in
the ripe fruits. The total carotenoid content decreased from 18.7 p, gl g to 14.6 p, g/g and
then increased to a level of 38.6 p, gl g in the ripe fruit. The chloroplast carotenoid pattern of
the unripe fruit changed gradually into a complex chromoplast pattern in which epoxides …
