Abstract

The effects of 1-MCP treatment on peel yellowing,respiratory rate and fruit quality of pear(Pyrus bretchneideri cv. Zaosu) were studied during storage at 23±1℃. The results showed that 1-MCP delayed fruit ripening and senescence by restraining respiratory intensity,postponing the appearing time of respiration peak and reducing the climactic values,also by restraining the decline of fruit firmness,titratable acidity and content of chlorophyll remarkably,preserving the pericarp green color and soluble solids contents,slowing the rise rates of SSC/TA. Among three concentrations of 1-MCP treatment,the effect of 1.0μL/L was optimal.
