The effects of fruit canopy position on chemical composition (SSC, ascorbic acid, carotenoid concentrations) and colour development of starfruit (Averrhoa carambola) under netted structure, were determined. The treatments consisted of three canopy positions: fruits facing the morning sun, fruits fac...
