Effect of 1-Methylcyclopropene on quality and physiology of Mopan persimmon with different maturity during freezing point storage
Abstract:The research was to explore the effect of 1-Methylcyclopropene on quality, physiological metabolic and softening related indexes of Mopan persimmon with different maturity during freezing point storage. Results showed that 1-MCP effectively inhibited the decline of fruit firmness, titratable acidity and vitamin C content, fiercely inhibited the increase of alcohol content, respiration rate and cell mem- brane permeability, inhibited the change of the soluble tannin to unsolvable tannin, reduced the activity of PG, PE, cellulose and amylase. It was found that Mopan fruit with 80 percent maturity softened and senesced more slowly, and could be stored better.
