Respiration Rates
See Table 1. The climacteric of this fruit normally occurs
on the vine (Biale 1975, Schotsmans et al. 2008). To get
mLkg-1 h-1, divide the mgkg-1 h-1 rate by 2.0 at 0°C (32°F),
1.9 at 10°C (50°F), and 1.8 at 20°C (68°F). To calculate
heat production, multiply mg kg-1 h-1 by 220 to get BTU
per ton per day or by 61 to get kcal per metric ton per day
