Figure 4.

Firmness of control and transgenic ripe APG fruits at harvest and after storage for 4 d at 5°C plus 2 d at 25°C. Firmness was measured with a TAXT-Plus texturometer using an Ottawa cell. Bars with different letters indicate statistically significant differences by T2-Tamhane in the case of fruits at harvest or by lsd in postharvest fruits, both at P = 0.05. Uppercase letters represent mean separation at harvest, and lowercase letters represent mean separation at postharvest.
