Abstract: | Fruit epidermis ofMusa (AAB) cv. Poovan (S) remains single-layered throughout its development. There is no change in stomatal number but its frequency
and index decrease due to slight increase in epidermal cell number and size. The external wall of the epidermal cells shows
stratification of wall layers that is characteristic of normal epidermal cell with cuticle and epicuticular wax deposits.
Surface wax deposits show qualitative and quantitative variations during fruit development and ripening. |
