摘要:
Ethylene initiates and/or co-ordinates ripening associated processes in climacteric fruits. Among climacteric fruits, avocado is relatively high in lipid content and apple is comparatively low. The ethylene binding site blocker 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) was sorbed faster and in greater amounts by avocado fruit (Persea americana Mill. 'Hass') and avocado oil than by apple fruit (Malus sylvestris var. domestica, 'Cox') and water, respectively. The ability of produce to sorb 1-MCP may have an influence on 1-MCP efficacy as a ripening inhibitor and should also be considered when prescribing commercial 1-MCP application strategies.
