Abstract: 【Objective】The aims of this study are to establish quantitative indices of mastication grade of Nanfeng Tangerine (Citrus reticulata Blanco cv. Kinokuni), and to provide clues for the cultivation measures to improve the mastication of Nanfeng Tangerine based on comparing the quality of fruits with different bearing habits. 【Method】 Nanfeng Tangerine was used in this study, and mastication grades of the fruits were judged by sensory evaluations. Then quantitative indices of fruits with different mastication quality such as thickness of segment membrane, and shear force, hardness and chewiness of segment of fruits were determined. Moreover, the correlation between mastication quality and these indices was analyzed. The mastication quality and the common quality (vitamin C, total soluble solution and titratable acid) of the fruits with different bearing habits were also determined.【Result】Two indices, thickness of segment membrane and shear force of segment, could be used for quantitatively evaluating and classifying the mastication quality of fruits. Based on the statistics of sensory evaluations, thickness of segment membrane and shear force of segment, the mastication of Nanfeng Tangerine could be classified into three grades: the superior mastication fruits with segment membrane thickness ranging from 0.09 to 0.12 cm and the segment shear force ranging from 1.15 to 1.64 kg; the medium mastication fruits with segment membrane thickness ranging from 0.12 to 0.14 cm and the segment shear force ranging 1.64 to 2.63 kg; and the inferior mastication fruits with segment membrane thickness ranging from 0.14 to 0.17 cm and the segment shear force ranging from 2.63 to 5.70 kg. The results of comparing quality of fruits with different bearing habits showed as follow: the big fruits had superior mastication quality than the medium fruits and small fruits,and the medium fruits had superior common quality than the small fruits and the big fruits; the fruits from short branch had superior mastication quality than the fruits from long branches, but they showed no difference in common quality; the fruits from high loads branches had superior mastication quality than the fruits from low loads branches but they also showed no difference in common quality; the outer fruits had superior quality than the inner fruits; and the fruits from middle layers had superior mastication quality than the fruits from upper and lower layers, and the fruits from middle and upper layers had superior common quality than the fruits from lower layers.【Conclusion】Mastication is an important quality index of Nanfeng Tangerine, which can be quantitatively evaluated by the thickness of segment membrane and the shear force of segment. There are different qualities of fruits with different bearing habits. Moreover, it was found that there is no obvious correlation between common quality and mastication quality, but fruits with better mastication quality usually have superior common quality.
