“…South Korea has been exporting high-quality sweet persimmons to about fourteen countries, including Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Dubai, the United States, and Canada, since its first export to Malaysia in 1993 [ 3 , 4 ]. About 8000 tons of persimmon fruits were exported in 2015, mostly to Southeast Asian countries including Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand [ 3 , 5 ]. The main producing area is in the southern part of Korea, especially in the Gyeongsangnam-do province, where 90% of the exported fruit originates [ 6 ].…”

Persimmons are one of the most important export fruits in South Korea, where several tons are exported across the globe each year. In this study, the quality attributes of ‘Wonmi’ persimmon fruits were evaluated during an export simulation at 0 °C, 10 °C, and 24 °C with a combination of 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) treatments. The relative humidity during the export simulation was greater at room temperature (75–92%) and 0 °C (85% to 93%) than at 10 °C (42% to 60%). The results show that the application of 1-MCP and MAP treatments during the export simulation were effective in delaying the ripening of ‘Wonmi’ persimmons by reducing respiration and ethylene production. The suppressed expression of ethylene synthesis genes and cell wall modification genes reduced the ethylene production and maintain the fruit firmness, respectively. In addition, 1-MCP and MAP treatments were effective in maintaining SSC and color of ‘Wonmi’ persimmon fruits during the export simulation. Thus, by adopting these treatments, the overall quality of persimmon exports from South Korea can significantly improve.
