title = "Non-destructive PGR detection in kiwifruit",
abstract = "Magnetic Resonance Imaging spectroscopy was used to reveal the effect of the plant growth regulators cytokinin and auxin on 'Hayward' kiwifruits at any stage of cultivation and ripening. The internal morphology was determined in order to depict structural features related to the hormone treatments. T 2-weighted MRI images showed different internal tissue organization depending on the use and the type of PGR. Transverse relaxation times allowed the recognition of cytokinin-treated samples, while greyscale analysis was used to identify auxin-treated kiwifruits.",
