Summary

Wounding, chilling injury and senescence considerably increased the deposition of ethanol-extractable phloroglycinol/chlorhydric acid positive compounds in flavedo, indicating (specific test) that wound gum deposition was more likely related than lignin biosynthesis to healing process and to pitting development under chilling conditions.
