similar increase patterns in the fruit. Starch decreased in fruit and calyx from 10-20 days PFS until harvest (60 days) continuously. Leaf starch content was highest of the measured carbohydrates and followed a Gauss curve pattern type during fruit growth. Leaf sucrose decreased after 40 days PFS, probably due to an increased translocation to the fruit. 47.2 % of total dry matter in mature fruits were carbohydrates, whereas in calyx and leaves the percentages were 5.7 and 7.4 % respectively. Fruits with detached calyx 5 days PFS presented lower monosaccaride concentration during the inicial fruit growth and lower sucrose during the midseason of fruit development. From the analyzed carbohydrates starch was highest during all stages of fruit development in fruits growing completely without husk. It is supposed that the calyx plays a dominant role in both built up and translocation of carbohydrates, mainly sucrose. With its removal fruit development is delayed indicated by the increased starch contents during all development stages. Thus, calyx has not only a protective function but is also an important source for assimilates especially in the early growth stage of the fruit. The decrease in sucrose content of leaves from the midseason on of fruit development might be due to an increased translocation from the leaf to the fruit.
