Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Methylcyclopropene(1-MCP), a competitive inhibitor of ethylene action ,was applied to kiwifruit fruit (Actinidia deliciosaC.F.Liang et A.R.Ferguson.‘qinmei’) at concentration 0.75uL/L after harvest at (20±0.5)℃ and(0±0.5)℃.The result showed that 1-MCP treatment significantly delayed and suppressed the onset and magnitude of fruit ethylene production rate. 1-MCP treatment inhibited loss of fruit firmness and delayed fruit ripening and softing. Meanwhile, 1-MCP-treated fruit had soluble solid equal to those in nontreated fruit. The result suggested that 1-MCP could be applied to enhance post-harvest quality of kiwifruit .
