1‐Methylcyclopropene Containing‐Paper Enhances the Storability of Anxi Persimmon by Regulating Energy Metabolism

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 16-26, March 2026.
1‐Methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) containing‐paper delayed the color change and maintained higher rate of commercially acceptable fruit in Anxi persimmons during storage were attributed to the increased activities of H+‐ATPase, Ca2+‐ATPase, and Mg2+‐ATPase and higher levels of ATP content and energy charge (EC).

Instrumental variables estimation of large demand systems with an application to fruit and vegetable demand and price index

open access: yesJournal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 46-61, March 2026.
Abstract This paper derives the asymptotic properties of an iterated three‐stage least squares (I3SLS) estimator and applies it to estimate a Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand (QUAID) system for 47 fruits and vegetables with endogenous prices. We calculate an exact price index from the estimates and compare it with several commonly used price indexes.
