Abstract：1-MCP (l-Methylcyclopropene) is a new type of ethylene inhibitor. It can control maturity and senescence of flow ers, fruits and vegetables by blocking the binding of ethylene receptor protein, inhibition of ethylene induced fruit ripening and senescence, delaying senescence of plant leaves, flowers and bud organs .It has significant effects on horticultural crops of postharvest storage, shelf life and product quality. In this paper, the influence of properties and mechanism of action of 1-MCP on fruit and vegetable, the influence of 1-MCP processing effect factors and 1-MCP at home and abroad research status were summarized and analyzed, and the problems existing in the application and the future research direction were put forward , thus providing theoretical basis for further expanding the application of 1-MCP in fruits and vegetables.
