Cell wall metabolism in cold-stored 'Somerset' sweet cherry fruit

'Somerset' is a dark-red, sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) cultivar displaying remarkable firmness levels, with concomitantly longer shelf-life potential in comparison to other varieties. It is generally accepted that fruit firmness depends mainly on the composition, structure and interconne...
