Both fruits and vegetables give off ethylene gas as they ripen (or break). This natural occurrence, is self perpetuating, in that the more gas that is given off in a given area, the more gas surrounding fruits and vegetables will create. Depending on the conditions such as air flow, heat, and diversity of produce will be the overall determining factors. In most controlled tests fruit will deteriorate faster than most non leafy vegetables. But it all in all it matters what fruits versus what vegetables, and the tests control standards.
