Abstract

Calyx-end browning in sweet persimmon (Diospyros kaki) fruits is the postharvest disorder during the storage and shows different proportions by the cultivars. This study was to evaluate fruit texture characteristics at harvest and to learn how browning in fruits affects the cell structures in different cultivars. Persimmon cultivars included 'Fuyu', 'Jiro', 'Uenishiwase', 'Daiandangam', and 'Ro-19', which were harvested at the end of October in 2003 and investigated after 100 days storage. Fruit texture varied with different cultivars. 'Jiro' and 'Ro-19' fruits did not have browning symptoms while 'Daiandangam' fruits had approximately 80% browning of them. There were no visual differences for the cell structure in fruit peels between fruits without browning, such as 'Jiro' and 'Ro-19', and fruits with browning, such as 'Fuyu', 'Uenishiwase', and 'Daiandangam'. The most outer layers in a 'Jiro' fruit peel arranged one to two epidermis which could not induce browning in the tissues, while 'Fuyu' had two to three layers, inducing a browning symptom. Although there were no differences for the tissue structure between browning and normal fruits, browning fruits did not have apparent cell organelle and proceeded degradation of cell walls in the flesh.

단감(Diospyros kaki) 저장시 문제되는 과정부 갈변은 품종마다 다른 양상을 보이고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 단감품종의 일반적인 과실의 물성특성을 파악하고, 저장 100일 후에 각 품종의 과육갈변이 세포구조에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지에 대해서 조사하였다. 단감 품종은 '부유'(Fuyu), '차랑'(Jiro), '상서조생'(Uenishiwase), '대안단감'(Daiandangam), '로-19'(Ro-19)이며 2003년 10월말에 수확해서 저장 100일 후에 조사하였다. 과실의 각 물성의 특성은 품종마다 다양하였고, '차랑'과 '로-19'는 갈변과가 관찰되지 않았고, '대안단감'의 경우 80%에 가까운 과육 갈변과가 나타났다. 과육 갈변과 발생이 많은 품종인 '부유', '상서조생', '대안단감'과, 과육 갈변과가 발생하지 않는 '차랑' 및 '로-19'와의 과피구조에는 차이가 없는 것으로 조사되었다. '차랑'은 과피층이 외표피층을 포함하여 1~2층으로 형성되어서 갈변이 유도될 만한 세포층 자체를 형성하지 못하는 것으로 보이며, '부유'는 과피층이 2~3층으로 갈변이 유도될 만한 세포층을 제공한 것으로 판단된다. 정상과와 갈변과의 전체적인 조직의 구조적인 차이는 발견되지 못하였으나, 갈변과의 경우 과육 내 소포 소기관이 구별이 되지 못했고, 세포벽의 분해가 진행되는 것으로 관찰되었다.
