Ripening and quality of 'Laetitia' plums following harvest and cold storage as affected by inhibition of ethylene action

Abstract: -The inhibition of ethylene action by 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) extends shelf and storage life of many climacteric fruits. However, 1-MCP appears to have limited effects on stone fruit depending on specie and cultivar. The effects of 1-MCP on ripening and quality of 'Laetitia' plums were determined during ripening at 23 o C following harvest and cold storage. Japanese plums (Prunus salicina, cv. Laetitia) were harvested at mature pre-climacteric stage, cooled to 2 o C within 36 hours of harvest and then tre… Show more

“…Fruits stored under modified atmosphere have higher hue angle, which are characterized by a duller color than that of fruits that were only kept in refrigerated storage (Steffens et al, 2009). This result must be related to the lower biosynthesis and ethylene action inside the package since the change in color during storage is dependent on the action of this plant growth regulator (Argenta et al, 2003).…”

“…Nos frutos mantidos a 23 ºC, as avaliações de respiração e produção de etileno foram feitas diariamente, sendo os demais atributos de qualidade avaliados após 0; 3; 6; 12 e 15 dias de armazenamento. Nos frutos mantidos a 4 ºC, todas as avaliações (respiração, produção de etileno e qualidade) foram feitas após 0; 2; 3 e 4 semanas de armazenamento, mais 8 h a 23 o C. Para as análises de respiração e produção de etileno, amostras compostas de oito frutos foram colocadas em jarras de 4 L, com fluxo constante de ar comprimido (120 mL min -1 ), livre de etileno, a 23 °C, segundo metodologia descrita por Argenta et al (2003). No decorrer das avaliações, frutos que apresentavam podridões e manchas escuras na epiderme foram removidos das jarras.…”

“…assim, o armazenamento dessa fruta é uma alternativa viável para estender o período de oferta do produto nacional (BRACKMANN et al, 2001). Por ser um fruto de alta perecibilidade, devido a sua elevada taxa metabólica durante a maturação, a principal forma adotada para reduzir o metabolismo e aumentar o tempo de conservação dos frutos é o resfriamento (BRACKMANN et al, 2005;MALGARIM et al, 2007).…”
