Spatial variation of physicochemical characteristics in Formosa papaya fruits
In order to evaluate the postharvest quality of different parts of the papaya fruit, an experiment was conducted in the Postharvest Laboratory, Department of Agrotechnology and Social Sciences, Universidade Federal Rural do Semiárido, Mossoró, RN, in September 2009. The fruits were harvested at matu...
