Combined postharvest UV-C and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment, followed by storage continuously in low level of ethylene atmosphere improves the quality of Tahitian limes [PDF]
The green Tahitian limes (Citrus latifolia) were exposed to 7.2 kJ m−2 UV-C and 0.5 μL L−1 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatments both separately and in combination. After treatment, fruit were stored in ethylene free (i.e.

Involvement of ethylene signalling in a non-climacteric fruit: new elements regarding the regulation of ADH expression in grapevine [PDF]
Although grape berries have been classified as non climacteric fruits, ongoing studies on grape ethylene signalling lead to challenge the role of ethylene in their ripening. One of the significant molecular changes in berries is the up regulation of ADH

Postharvest UV-C treatment combined with 1-methylcyclopropene 1 (1-MCP), followed by storage in continuous low level ethylene atmosphere improves the quality of tomatoes [PDF]
Mature green tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L. cv Neang Pich) were exposed to 13.6 kJ m−2 UV-C or 0.5 μL L−1 1-MCP or combination of 13.6 kJ m−2 UV-C and 0.5 μL L−1 1-MCP, with appropriate untreated controls.

1-Methylcyclopropene maintains postharvest quality in Norwegian apple fruit [PDF]
Norwegian fruit production is mostly destined for the local market and can suffer from poor-quality retention during storage. 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) is an inhibitor of ethylene perception used to maintain the physical and functional quality of pome fruit.

Ethylene plays an important role in kiwifruit ripening. However, it is unclear whether there are differences in ethylene production in different parts of kiwifruit during postharvest ripening. Kiwifruit were treated with 0.5 μL L−1 1-MCP for 12 h at 20°C

ER5, a tomato cDNA encoding an ethylene-responsive LEA-like protein: characterization and expression in response to drought, ABA and wounding [PDF]
We report the isolation by differential display of a novel tomato ethylene-responsive cDNA, designated ER5. RT-PCR analysis of ER5 expression revealed an early (15 min) and transient induction by ethylene in tomato fruit, leaves and roots.

The effect of nanocoatings enriched with essential oils on ‘Rocha’ pear long storage [PDF]
The effect of coating 'Rocha' pears with alginate-based nanoemulsions enriched with lemongrass essential oil (LG) or citral (Cit) was investigated. Fruit were treated with the nanoemulsions: sodium alginate 2% (w/w) + citral 1% (w/w) (Cit1%); sodium ...
