Succinoxidase Activity of Avocado Fruit Mitochondria in Relation to Temperature and Chilling Injury throughout the Climacteric Cycle 1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Mitochondria were isolated from `Fuerte' avocado fruit (Persea americana Mill.) at four different stages of the respiratory climacteric. Preclimacteric fruit had the highest rate of succinate oxidation and the postclimacteric mitochondria the lowest. Subsequently, successive additions of ADP increased the respiratory control ratio.
