Developmental Differences and Implications for Small and Large ‘Zesy002’ Kiwifruit
‘Zesy002’ (Actinidia chinensis var. chinensis, sold commercially as Zespri SunGold Kiwifruit) now dominates the New Zealand kiwifruit industry and the global market for yellow‐fleshed kiwifruit. It is an inherently larger‐fruited cultivar than the traditional green‐fleshed “Hayward” fruit, with an average fruit mass of ∼120 g compared to ∼100 g for ...

Regulation of Ethylene Synthesis of Harvested Banana Fruit by 1 -Methylcyclopropene
Treatment with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), a potent inhibitor of ethylene action, delayed the decrease in fruit firmness and the time in peaks of respiration and ethylene production rates, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) concentration, and ...

Postharvest conservation of alstroemeria ‘ajax’ using 1-methylcyclopropene
Cut flowers deteriorate quickly and require postharvest technologies to increase their durability, which is usually around 8 days. Due to the scarce information related to postharvest physiology of Alstroemeria cut flowers, this study aimed to verify the

Fruit Texture Measurement: A Review of Biological and Mechanical Interactions
Textural changes are an important aspect of fruit ripening. Accurate measurement of texture allows for a scientific understanding of fruit development including aspects of maturation and ripening, the effect of storage treatments, and the sensory acceptability for a range of fruit species.

Effect of 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene) on the vase life of Chrysanthemum and Carnation cut flowers
The effect of 1-MCP on extending the vase life of chrysanthemum and carnation cut flowers was studied. The flowering stems of both flowers were terminated to 50 cm. in height.

INFLUENCE OF 1-METHYLCYCLOPROPENE ON THE BIOCHEMICAL RESPONSE AND RIPENING OF ‘SOLO’ PAPAYAS [PDF]
ABSTRACT The market demand for tropical fruits has been growing steadily over the past two decades and global papaya production has grown significantly over the last few years. This sector, however, suffers greatly from postharvest losses due to reduced quantity and quality of fruits between harvest and consumption. The use of ethylene inhibitors after

Harnessing genomic resources for passion fruit improvement: Progress and prospects
Abstract Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is a highly nutritious horticultural crop cultivated widely across tropical and subtropical regions. Despite decades of breeding efforts that have led to the release of a few high‐yielding cultivars, on‐farm productivity remains suboptimal, and several existing cultivars are showing signs of declining vigor ...

Significance Statement Ethylene signaling governs key plant processes, yet how its receptors translate hormone binding and copper coordination into cellular responses remains unclear. Integrating structural biology, spectroscopy, and simulations reveals receptor organization and clustering, advancing a unified mechanistic framework for ethylene ...

'PACKHAM'S TRIUMPH' PEAR RESPONSE TO 1- METHYLCYCLOPROPENE AND NITRIC OXIDE TREATMENTS [PDF]
ABSTRACT: This study aimed at assessing the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), gas-nitric oxide (NO) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on ripening of 'Packham's Triumph' pears. The treatments consisted of T1) control; T2) 300 ppb 1-MCP; T3) 1 mM SNP; T4) 10 ppm NO; and T5) 20 ppm NO. The fruit treated with 1-MCP showed significantly higher values for
