Abstract

Abstract The total amounts of pectic fractions in the albedo tissue of infected and uninfected fruit of lemon [ Citrus lemon (L.) Burm.] were almost the same, but changes were found in different fractions: the water-soluble pectic fraction decreased in the infected fruit, while the alkali-soluble fraction increased and the acid-soluble fraction remained unchanged. Such changes in pectic substances may be typical of fruits exhibiting a firm type of rot.
