It is reasonable to suspect that the syndrome was in fact developing in Sample 51, but not yet expressed in terms of the palpable muscle firmness.
However, other cell wall related genes (e.g. a fascilin-like arabinogalactanan protein gene, CmFAG cCL1228Contig1) were more highly expressed in PS than in Ved, suggesting that loss of fruit firmness in PS is mediated by a different set of enzymes and is probably independent of ethylene signalling.
Firmness of the fruit samples was defined as the rupture load of the force/deformation curve and expressed in Newton (N).
Firmness was measured with a fruit sclerometer (GY-B, Jilin, China) with 4 mm diameter and expressed as N cm 2 and the average value per fruit was used for further analysis, after removing three largest and three smallest measurements; a total twelve replicates were comparative statistically analysed per sample using Student's t-test (P < 0.05).
The speed setting was 200 mm/sec, whereas the penetration force was measured in N. The values were recorded and firmness was calculated dividing the maximum shear compression force by the total weight of fruits and expressed as N/g of product.
Self-assessment questionnaires expressed significant results in efficiency of the treatment for parameters such as wrinkles, roughness, nasolabial folds, elasticity, firmness, skin radiance, softness, and under-eye dark circles.
Like logic, the formalism admits qualitative sentences and provides symbolic machinery for deriving deductively closed beliefs and, like probability, it permits us to express if-then rules with different levels of firmness and to retract beliefs in response to changing observations.
A major ripening change in Actinidia spp. is textural, from a firm texture (>50 Newton (N) firmness) to a soft melting texture (<10 N firmness).
"Firmness… sparseness as elegance," the Marni show notes began.
New York has embodied firmness and security.
