abstract

fruit development was investigated in field and changes in pericarp structure were comparatively studied in over-winter off-season and on-season longan (dimocarpus longan lour. cv. chuliang). the results showed developmental problems including small fruit size, severe fruit cracking and heavy fruit drop in the off-season fruit, although their seed size was not significantly affected compared to the on-season fruit. anatomical studies showed that off-season longan fruit had a poorly developed pericarp, which was reflected by smaller fresh weight as well as thinner pericarp thickness, thinner spongy tissue, fewer cell layers in the periderm, smaller cell size and fewer cell numbers in the parenchyma tissue at the upper mesocarp, and fewer cell layers in the endocarp. in contrast, the recovery of the sclereids in the mesocarp was higher in the pericarp of the off-season fruit. the poor development of the pericarp in off-season fruit probably caused the small fruit size and severe fruit cracking. it was suggested that the adverse climatic conditions encountered by fruit development in the over-winter off-season longan suppressed cell division and expansion in the pericarp but did not affect sclereid formation.

research highlights

right triangle, filled over-winter off-season longan had a poorly developed pericarp which is related to small fruit size and severe cracking. the adverse climatic conditions encountered by off-season longan suppressed cell division and expansion but affect not sclereid formation in the pericarp.

note to users: the section "articles in press" contains peer reviewed accepted articles to be published in this journal. when the final article is assigned to an issue of the journal, the "article in press" version will be removed from this section and will appear in the associated published journal issue. the date it was first made available online will be carried over. please be aware that although "articles in press" do not have all bibliographic details available yet, they can already be cited using the year of online publication and the doi as follows: author(s), article title, journal (year), doi. please consult the journal''s reference style for the exact appearance of these elements, abbreviation of journal names and the use of punctuation.

there are three types of "articles in press":

accepted manuscripts: these are articles that have been peer reviewed and accepted for publication by the editorial board. the articles have not yet been copy edited and/or formatted in the journal house style.
uncorrected proofs: these are copy edited and formatted articles that are not yet finalized and that will be corrected by the authors. therefore the text could change before final publication.
corrected proofs: these are articles containing the authors'' corrections and may, or may not yet have specific issue and page numbers assigned.
