Responses of Musa AAA Berangan to 1-methylcyclopropene [PDF]

, 2009
1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) is an inhibitor of ethylene perception and has been shown to delay the ripening of Cavendish bananas. Nevertheless, no work has reported the delay in the ripening of local bananas using 1-MCP.

Functional characterization of a melon alcohol acyl-transferase gene family involved in the biosynthesis of ester volatiles. Identification of the crucial role of a threonine residue for enzyme activity [PDF]

, 2005
Volatile esters, a major class of compounds contributing to the aroma of many fruit, are synthesized by alcohol acyl-transferases (AAT). We demonstrate here that, in Charentais melon (Cucumis melo var.

Manipulation of tomato ripening using 1-methylcyclopropene

, 2020
1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) strongly inhibits ethylene (C2H4) action in less mature tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) fruits, and that control by 1-MCP over C2H4 action limits its commercial use. Our first objective was to determine whether ripening in less mature fruits could be reinitiated by exposure to C2H4 when tomatoes were treated ...

The optimization of crop response to climatic stress through modulation of plant stress response mechanisms. Opportunities for biostimulants and plant hormones to meet climate challenges.

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 130-151, January 2026.
Summary This review discusses the use of agronomic management practices to enhance crop stress resilience to climate stress through the modulation of natural plant growth regulatory pathways. The use of biostimulants or plant hormones to improve crop resilience is subject to strict regulatory oversight if changes in the regulation of plant growth are ...

Extending Freshness, Securing Safety: Integrated Strategies for Perishable Produce in Bangladesh

Future Postharvest and Food, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 478-487, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The recent increase in the world population, limited resources, and the need to store food for future use or transportation make it essential to improve shelf life. Food can be categorized into three types: highly perishable, semi‐perishable, and highly stable. Among these, extending the shelf life of highly perishable foods is a major concern
