“…In our previous study (Kim et al, 2007), it was found that A. arguta fruit contained a remarkably high amount of myo-inositol, ranging from 585.9 to 716.4 mg/100 g FW. Although the content of myo-inositol in A. rufa fruit was lower than that of A. arguta fruit, it was identical to that of A. deliciosa 'Hayward' and was relatively high among fruit crops (Clements and Darnell, 1980).…”

“…The ratio of hexoses to total sugars in A. rufa collections was 0.7 on average, slightly lower than A. deliciosa 'Hayward' and 'Koryoku' at 0.9, but much higher than A. arguta 'Mitsuko' at 0.2 (Kim et al, 2007). The different sugar compositions among Actinidia species may be due to variations in the activity of invertase, sucrose synthase, and other enzymes related to sucrose metabolism (Richardson et al, 2004).…”

“…In the field observation, A. rufa fruit did not soften on the vine even at late stages of maturation at 190 DAFB. Furthermore, even after harvest, the fruit of A. rufa did not produce ethylene at room temperature at least for 2 weeks (Kim et al, 2007), suggesting that the ripening trait of A. rufa fruit was similar to that of A. deliciosa kiwifruit (Yano and Hasegawa, 1993). The conditions for ripening and the storage ability of A. rufa fruit should be further studied.…”

“…It was markedly lower than in A. deliciosa and A. arguta, at 5.1-10.1 and 26.9-37.6 nmol pNA released·min −1 , respectively (Nishiyama et al, 2004a;Kim et al, 2007). Since actinidin, a cysteine protease in kiwifruit, may display allergenic properties (Fiocchi et al, 2004), A. rufa may be a promising breeding material for low allergenic Actinidia berries.…”

The fruit characteristics of Shima sarunashi (Actinidia rufa (Siebold & Zucc.) Planch. ex Miq.), indigenous to the warm regions in Japan were determined. Two typical collections were investigated to evaluate fruit characters throughout growth. Starch accumulated gradually from 120 days after full bloom (DAFB), and peaked at 160 DAFB. Along with the reduction of the starch content, the sugar content increased at 180 DAFB. Major sugar components of A. rufa fruit were glucose, fructose, and sucrose. In the early stage of fruit development, quinic acid was predominant, and then the content decreased gradually until 160 DAFB, while the content of citric acid gradually increased after 60 DAFB and that of malic acid increased slightly. A trace amount of soluble oxalate was detected throughout the fruit development period. Ascorbic acid content increased in the early to mid-stages of fruit development. Considering the change in quality, the maturation period of A. rufa fruit was estimated to be 180 DAFB. From the evaluation of mature fruit among 11 local collections, fruit shape varied, being round, ovoid, cylindroidal, and truncate. Fruit weight ranged from 7.4 to 18.6 g. Fruit skin was glabrous and the surface color varied from reddish-brown to brown. Flesh color was basically green or dark green. Exceptionally, in one collection, the flesh was reddish around the core. Soluble solid content of ripened fruit juice ranged from 6.2 to 17.4%. Sugar content varied from 2.0 to 15.6 g/100 g FW. Myo-inositol content ranged from 6.0 to 132.1 mg/100 g FW. Major organic acids were quinic, citric, and malic acid, and quinic acid was predominant. Total acid content ranged from 1.5 to 3.0 g/100 g FW. Total ascorbic acid content ranged from 6.8 to 45.8 mg/100 g FW. In all collections, protease activity in the juice was very low.

“…Breeding based on evaluation of wild genetic resources is needed for the commercial cultivation of these wild Actinidia species. Interest in kiwifruit relatives such as A. arguta and A. rufa that are native to Japan has increased, and these genetic resources have been evaluated and incorporated into breeding programs Uchida, 2009a, b, 2010;Kataoka et al, 2003Kataoka et al, , 2010Kataoka et al, , 2014Kim et al, 2007Kim et al, , 2009Kim et al, , 2012Matsumoto et al, 2011).

The genus Actinidia includes widely-sold kiwifruit, and is thus horticulturally important. We investigated the distribution, ploidy levels, and fruit characteristics of the natural populations of three edible Actinidia species [Actinidia arguta (Siebold & Zucc.) Planch. ex Miq., Actinidia kolomikta (Maxim. & Rupr.) Maxim., and Actinidia polygama (Siebold & Zucc.) Planch. ex Maxim.] in Hokkaido, the northern island of Japan. Actinidia arguta and A. kolomikta were common, and their habitat ranges overlapped. Actinidia polygama was less common, and its habitat was mostly limited to lowland deciduous forests. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that all wild collections of A. kolomikta and A. polygama were diploid, and that A. arguta was tetraploid, suggesting a lack of intraspecific ploidy variation. Fruit shape varied from round to ovoid in A. arguta, ranged from ovoid to ellipsoidal in A. kolomikta, and was ellipsoidal in A. polygama. The fruit skin of all species was glabrous, and skin color was orange in A. polygama, green to dark green in A. kolomikta, and light to dark green in A. arguta. The fresh weight of A. kolomikta fruit was less than that of A. arguta, and the soluble solids content (SSC) of the fruits varied widely within species. One sample of A. arguta had extremely high SSC (average Brix of 30.8%). The ascorbic acid content (AAC) was the highest in A. kolomikta (up to 805 mg per 100 g fresh weight). Actinidia arguta and A. kolomikta germplasm may be useful for breeding new kiwifruit varieties for cultivation in cold-temperate regions.
