| Sumario: | A follow-up trial of the evolution of fruit size
and fruit weight of a "Hayward" kiwifruit cultivar
was conducted in a commercial plantation in the
province of Córdoba during three consecutive
years. Twelve representative plants were
selected and kiwifruit were harvested during
three consecutive years, during four weeks,
from March 4th to March 24th, when they reached
5° Brix. The examined variables were fruit
weight, fruit length, major diameter and minor
diameter of the fruit at the moment of harvest
and after six days at room temperature. Fruit
weight increased from a minimum value of
83.71 g to 121.1 g. After six days, the weight loss
varied from a minimum of 3.11 g to a maximum
of 6.01 g. Fruit length went from 54.73 mm to
64.20 mm. The major diameter varied from
52.12 mm to 59.7 mm presenting a decrease
after six days from a minimum of 0.27 mm to a
maximum of 7.12 mm. The minor diameter went
from 42 mm to 54.41 mm between the first and
the fourth harvest. All the variables showed an
increase as the harvest was delayed, which
seems to justify a later harvest considering the
size of the fruit. |
