Developing Tree Ripe Standards
Crisosto, et al., 2001. Journal American Pomological Society 55(2): 76-81
Proposed harvest maturity/quality indexes based on firmness and minimum SSC for different plum cultivars.
CultivarFirmness

SSC(%)
Blackamber 7-9 10-12Z
Fortune 7-9 11
Friar 7-9 11
Royal D. 7-9 11
Angeleno 6-9 12
Betty Anne 7-9 12
ZBlackamber plums with TA 0.60% after ripening have a high consumer acceptance. If plums have > 12.0% SSC, TA does not play a role.
More Types of Tree Fruit
About 70 varieties released per year.
50% of the releases are sub acid types.

WHAT IS MEALINESS?
Fruit that are soft but not juicy
Cell wall changes during normal peach fruit ripening and in chilling injury causing lack of available juice and
mealiness
Cell wall of flowering plants
Carpita and Gibeaut (1993) Plant J. 3: 1-30

• cells separate evenly
• cells break apart to release juice

Light microscopy of juicy and mealy fruit
A. Harvest
B. Storage 1 week
C. Storage 1 week + ripening (juicy)
D. Storage 3 weeks
E. Storage 3 weeks + ripening (mealy)
At harvest or after 1 week storage there is tight adhesion between cells and small air spaces
Juicy fruit have slightly rounded cells with increased cell separation
Mealy fruit have cells that are more spherical,
with large intercellular air spaces

Harvest Storage Storage+ripening
Short Term Approach
Segregate cultivars by their market life potential.
Monitor flesh temperature.
Develop practical technology to limit the CI problem.
