Abstract

SummaryJujube fruits (Z. spina-christi L., Willd.) of the three cvs Bambawi, Zaytoni and Mallasey were harvested at three stages of maturity and their physiological characteristics measured. Moisture content, titratable acidity, total chlorophyll and pectic substances decreased with fruit maturity. Total soluble solids, carotenoids and vitamin C contents increased as the fruit matured.
