dc.description.abstractPhysico-chemical changes were monitored during growth of pollination variant non-astringent 'Harbiye' persimmon fruits (Diospyros kaki L.) grown at low or high altitude of the East Mediterranean Region of Turkey for two growing seasons (2001-2002 and 2002-2003). Fruit growth in diameter followed a typical double sigmoid curve, consisting of two rapid growth stages, stage I and stage III, separated by a period of slow growth (stage II) at both altitudes. The durations of stages I, II and III were 105-119, 21-35 and 21-42 days, respectively, at low and high altitude. 'Harbiye' persimmons showed significant decreases in soluble tannin concentration and total carotenoid content during stage I. At the end of stage I, 'Harbiye' persimmons became non-astringent. Stage II was characterized with slow growth, the beginning of acid degradation and a significant increase in total sugars, especially in the sucrose component. At end of stage II, the fruit began to turn yellow-orange, indicating the occurrence of colour break. The greatest increase in total soluble solids (TSS) content occurred in the final month before harvest during stage III when pronounced changes in skin colour and softening of fruits were observed. The 175 and 168 days after full bloom (DAFB) at low and high altitudes, respectively, are appropriate timing for harvest of the 'Harbiye' persimmon fruits in the East Mediterranean region. At these stages, 'Harbiye' persimmon fruits reached the best quality for consumers. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.en_US
