Abstract

Cell wall components were decreased during maturation and postharvest of persimmon fruits. Contents of pectin and alkali-soluble hemicellulose were increased during maturity, but those of acid-soluble hemicellulose were decreased. Contents of pectin and alkali-soluble hemicellulose were decrease in soft persimmon, whereas acid-soluble hemicellulose was increased remarkably. Cellulose contents were increased during maturation and this tend was notable in soft persimmon. Contents of cell wall polysaccharides per 100g-fresh weight were decreased. Contents of total pectin and insoluble pectin were increased during maturation but decreased in soft persimmon. Content of water-soluble pectin was increased during maturation and postharvest.

감과실의 성숙과 추숙중 세포벽의 함량은 감소하는 경향이었고, 성숙중에는 pectin질과 알칼리 가용성 hemicellulose의 함량은 증가하는 반면 산 가용성 hemicellulose와 lignin은 감소하였다. 그러나 연시에서는 pectin질과 알칼리 가용성 hemicelloluse의 감소와 산가용성 hemicellulose의 증가가 뚜렷하였다. 그리고 성숙과 추숙중에 cellulose의 함량은 증가하였으며, 생체당 세포벽 다당류의 함량은 감소하였다. 총 pectin질과 불용성 pectin질의 함량은 성숙중에는 증가하였으나 연시에서는 현저히 감소하였으며, 반면에 수용성 pectin질의 함량은 성숙과 추숙중에 증가하였다.
