説明

The energy requirement was estimated for the growth of a cucumber (Cucumis stativus L.) 'Tokiwa Hikari 3 Go A Gata' fruit by measuring its volume and respiration rate after the peduncle was heat-girdled. The fruit increased up to 30% in volume after the girdling treatment. The amount of growth in volume of a fruit during the first day after girdling showed temperature-dependence with Q10 of about 2. Time course of respiration rate of fruit after girdling was similar to that after cutting of the peduncle. Respiration rate (R) of fruit t hours after girdling fitted well to the equation R =a • e-b • t+ c. Con- stant c in this equation corresponds to the maintenance respiration estimated by 'starvation method'. Q10s of constants b and c were about 2. At 30°C, the amount of CO2 respired could be divided into growth and maintenance components both on the basis of fruit volume by a linear regression (r = 0.99* *). Maintenance respiration rate of fruit estimated from this regression was close to constant c.<BR>Dry weight, ethanol-soluble solids and ethanol-insoluble solids contents of fruit did not change significantly after heat-girdling. Change in osmotic potential of fruit after girdling could be explained by dilution on account of the influx of water. Hexose content of fruit decreased by 15% at 30°C.<BR>The data suggest that the energy cost for cell expansion in fruit with a girdled peduncle is similar to that of a normally growing fruit. Energy metabolism of cucumber fruit seems to be closely related to cell expansion that accompanies water import.
