In vivo sucrose stimulation of colour change in citrus fruit epicarps: Interactions between nutritional and hormonal signals

During ripening, citrus fruit-peel undergoes 'colour break', a process characterized by the conversion of chloroplast to chromoplast. The process involves the progressive loss of chlorophylls and the gain of carotenoids, changing peel colour from green to orange. In the present work, the in...
