Activity of pectic enzymes involved in the ripening process of lulo (Solanum quitoense Lam.) Actividad de enzimas pécticas involucradas en la maduración del lulo (Solanum quitoense Lam.)
RESUMEN In the ripening process of the lulo (Solanum quitoense Lam.) physicochemical changes are produced by pectics enzymes as Polygalacturonase (PG), Pectinesterase (PE) and Pectateliase (PL) that acting on pectics substrates of plant tissue, being responsible of the physiological alteration of cells and tissues that results in the fruit softening and the beginning of the premature senescence period. This research explores the foun dations of the softening enzymes behavior of lulo epicarp for
