Subject area	Biology
More specific subject area	Plant physiology
Type of data	Table, Figures
How data was acquired	Texture analysis by texturometer through the uniaxial compression test
	Immunochemical data were obtained by ELISA
Data format	Raw data and analysis
Experimental factors	Portions of fruit parenchyma were cut and analyzed with a texturometer. Fruit cell wall polymers were sequentially extracted from parenchyma with water, CDTA, Na2CO3and KOH. The cell wall fractions were analyzed by ELISA to reveal partial compositions. Relationships among textural features, taxonomical origin and cell wall composition were determined.
Experimental features	Texturometer analysis of fruit parenchyma.
	Cell wall extraction yields.
	ELISA of sequentially extracted cell wall polysaccharides using characterised monoclonal antibodies against pectic homogalacturonan, pectic rhamnogalacturonan-1, xyloglucan and heteroxylan.
