Abstract

Korla fragrant pear were used as test materials to study the postharvest quality and physiology in pear friuts. The pears were treated with 1 μL/L 1-MCP for 24 h and then stored at(20±1) ℃, RH 80%~85%, then firmness, soluble soild content(SSC), Vc content, chlorophyll of pericarp, hue-angle, ethylene release, respiration, weight-loss rate, relative conductive were measured. The result showed that the 1-MCP treatment can maintain firmness, SSC, Vc content; restrain chlorophyll of pericarp to decompose, hue-angle to decline, ethylene release and delay the peak of respiration; reduce weightloss rate, relative conductive. Arrive at the conclusion that 1-MCP treatment can improve quality of Korla fragrant pear during shelf-life.
