Contributions of cellular components to the rheological behaviour of kiwifruit
In this research work we propose an empirical model and develop a methodology for the determination of the magnitude of the contributions of turgor pressure, cell wall and middle lamellae, to the elastic properties of a plant material within a particular tissue type. The model system used was outer...
