Effects of temperature on acid and soluble solids in Satsuma oranges

Effect of Light Intensity during the Growing Period on Ascorbic Acid Content and Its Histochemical Distribution in the Leaves and Peel, and Fruit Quality of Satsuma Mandarin.

“…The result in this study was similar to the former. Other reports indicated that the changes in acid content in the juice were affected by temperature during fruit growth of satsuma mandarin (Nii et al, 1970;Sakamoto and Okuchi, 1968), Valencia orange (Cooper et al, 1963), and grapefruit (Young et al, 1969). We consider that acid content of citrus fruits seems to be affected by not only light intensity but also by the temperature during the growing period.…”

Metabolite Composition of Grapefruit (<i>Citrus paradisi</i>) Grown in Japan Depends on the Growing Environment and Harvest Period

“…The changes with time in the chemical constituents of citrus fruit during the course of maturation and ripening have been studied (Bermejo and Cano, 2012;Iwagaki et al, 1981;Takebayashi et al, 1993), but there is no information about changes with time in the metabolite composition of grapefruit grown in Japan. Furthermore, in Japan, citrus fruits are grown both outdoors and in plastic houses, with the aim of stabilizing and improving fruit quality, and although the influence of growing environment on fruit quality and metabolite composition has been studied in other citrus species (Izumi, 1999;Kamota, 1987;Morinaga and Sykes, 2001;Sakamoto and Okuchi, 1968;Sawamura et al, 1983;Takagi et al, 1994;Takebayashi et al, 1992), no studies have compared the metabolite composition of grapefruit grown outdoors to that of grapefruit grown in plastic houses in Japan until the present study.…”

“…Average air temperature near the cultivated region was constant from December of 2014 to February of 2015 and increased in March and April of 2015 (Japan Meteorological Agency, http://www.jma.go.jp/). It is predicted that the higher temperature of plastic houses enhances the respiration activity of fruit flesh and the metabolism of sugars and organic acids as substrates, and in addition, several reports have demonstrated that high temperatures during fruit development reduce the acidity and total sugar content of juice from satsuma mandarin (Sakamoto and Okuchi, 1968;Takagi et al, 1994).…”
