论文摘要：
In the world kiwifruit industry, there are both green-fleshed and yellow-fleshed kiwifruit in the marketplace (Huang, 2009). The dominant position of the green-fleshed kiwifruit is changing. The green-fleshed kiwifruit, represented by ‘Hayward’, dominate the international kiwifruit market because of good marketability and outstanding storage quality. However, during the past two decades, yellow-fleshed kiwifruit such as ‘Hort16A’ in New Zealand and ‘Jintao’ in China have also been developed. These new yellow-fleshed cultivars are sweeter and more aromatic than ‘Hayward’ and have attracted much attention from consumers. The purchase price for ‘Hort16A’ or ‘Jintao’ is at least 30% higher than that for ‘Hayward’. However, in general, the storage life of yellow-fleshed cultivars is not as good as that of ‘Hayward’. This limited storage life has resulted in considerable fresh fruit losses. Therefore, it is necessary to breed new yellow-fleshed cultivars with long storage and shelf life.
