Representative force/strain diagrams of hydrated CM, PM and membranes with CM/PM transition zones subjected to a uniaxial tensile test. Specimens were enzymatically isolated from non-russeted (CM), russeted (PM) and transition regions (CM/PM) of apple (A) and pear skins (B). For the maximum force, strain at the maximum force and modulus of elasticity, see Table 2.
