Autofluorescence changes of tomato surface tissues during overripening

We investigated the autofluorescence of tomato surface tissues during overripening at 25 °C for 13 days. Microscopic images and fluorescence spectra of tissues, including the epidermis and cuticle, were examined (excitation at 360 nm), revealing that the autofluorescence changes were related to the...

Description
Summary:We investigated the autofluorescence of tomato surface tissues during overripening at 25 °C for 13 days. Microscopic images and fluorescence spectra of tissues, including the epidermis and cuticle, were examined (excitation at 360 nm), revealing that the autofluorescence changes were related to the epidermis, particularly the fluorophores in the cuticle. We investigated the autofluorescence of tomato surface tissues during overripening. Microscopic images and fluorescence spectra of tissues were examined, revealing that the autofluorescence changes were related to the epidermis and the cuticle.
