AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies make it difficult to quickly and easily measure fruit turgor pressure, and cannot simultaneously measure water potential and osmotic potential, resulting in cumbersome operation and expensive equipment.
The water potential and osmotic potential of the fruit were measured using a dew point condenser. The water potential and osmotic potential were measured by obtaining a first sample and a second sample from the same part of the fruit, and the fruit turgor pressure was calculated using a formula.
It enables rapid and convenient measurement of fruit turgor pressure, simplifies the operation steps, improves the measurement efficiency, and achieves simultaneous and accurate measurement of water potential and osmotic potential.
