Effects of AminoethoxyVinylGlycine (AVG) Spraying Time at Preharvest Stage to Ethylene Biosynthesis of Cavendish Banana (Musa AAA)

Abstract: This research aimed to identify the possible effects of the moment of Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) application during near harvest period on ethylene biosynthesis and find out the most appropriate possible way to control the process for maximum prolonging the postharvest shelf -life of bananas. Results indicated that the most appropriate moment of AVG application is from the 74 th to 78 th days after formation of the last hand of a bunch has been finished as AVG showed some inhibition effects on ACC, ACC oxyd… Show more

“…However, references on postharvest applications of AVG to "Cavendish" banana are very lacking. Comparing to the concentrations used by [2] and [13] should be done with cautions because [2] applied it in different stages and with a different chemical, and [13] applied it as a preharvest application, and consequently they used very high concentrations which might be considered uneconomical.…”

“…The loss of firmness during storage period was due to the change in banana texture but the coating of silver nano particles slowed down the metabolic and enzymatic activities by inhibiting the respiratory metabolism in the fruits that results a slower degradation of pulp tissues [59,60]. Consequently, bananas stored with AgNPs can retain their firmness by reducing the ethylene production, respiration rate, the speed of converting sugar and decay rate of banana [61].…”
