From: Modeling the vacuolar storage of malate shed lights on pre- and post-harvest fruit acidity

Figure 4

Measured (symbols) and simulated (lines) malate concentrations in the pulp of banana of cultivars IDN, PJB, and PL during fruit post-harvest ripening. The cultivars were grown under two contrasted fruit loads in 2011 (LL: low fruit load; HL: high fruit load), and two contrasted levels of potassium fertilization in 2012 (NF: no potassium fertilization; HF: high potassium fertilization). In 2011, fruits were harvested at two different stages: early stage (70% of FYT) and late stage (90% of FYT). Data are means ± s.d (n = 6). The RMSE (mmol 100 g FW−1) and RRMSE are indicated in each graph.
