Abstract

Fengweimeigui pluots to USA fruit was used to investigate the effect of 1-methlcyclopropene on post harvest physiology and storage quality.Fengweimeigui pluots to USA fruit was treated with concentrations of 0,0.5,1.0,1.5 μL/L 1-MCP for 12 h at room temperature(20±1)℃ and stored at room temperature.The results showed that During storage,fruit treated with 1.0 μL/L 1-MCP showed lower ethylene release and respiration rate.Higher values of firmness were observed in 1-MCP-treated pluots to USA compared with control,and fruits softened more slower than untreated fruits.the 1-MCP treatment could significantly decrease the rotten rates of fruit,and delay the loss of total soluble solids,contents of titratable and content of vitamine C.1-MCP could improve the storage quality.But it was limited that 1-MCP-treated lengthened shelf life of pluots to USA at room temperature.
