Current perspectives on the use of 1-methylcyclopropene in tree fruit crops: an international survey
TL;DR: The potential benefits of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) for improving the storability and quality of horticultural products is discussed in this paper, where the authors present a snapshot of the current state-of-the-art, provide an estimate of the potential benefits for the use of 1MCP in tree fruit crops where development is still in progress, and evaluate factors that can influence successful application.

Effectiveness of alginate coating on antioxidant enzymes and biochemical changes during storage of mango fruit.
TL;DR: The results of this study showed that using sodium alginate coating at 3% concentration had a significant effect on preventing water loss, color changes and preserving antioxidant properties, phenol and flavonoids compounds of mango fruit during storage.

Ethylene synthesis and sensitivity in crop plants.
Stephen P. Klassen,Bruce Bugbee +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of basic studies on ethylene synthesis and sensitivity is presented and it is shown that whole plant responses have not been accurately quantified and are influenced by both biotic and abiotic stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of low oxygen, temperature and 1-methylcyclopropene on the expression of genes regulating ethylene biosynthesis and perception during ripening in apple
TL;DR: The molecular basis of the increase in shelf life under the influence of temperature, low oxygen and 1-MCP in Granny Smith apple is understood and a tight regulation of the ethylene production was observed through differential expression of MdACS1 and MdERS1 genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of 1-MCP and ethylene on postharvest quality and expression of senescence-associated genes in cut rose cv. Sparkle
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and ethylene on postharvest quality of cut rose ‘Sparkle’ and expression of Laccase and Aquaporins genes were investigated.

Inhibitors of ethylene responses in plants at the receptor level: Recent developments
Edward C. Sisler,Margrethe Serek +1 more
TL;DR: Since 1-MCP apparently is non-toxic at concentrations that are active, it may in future be available for regulating the ripening of fruits and preventing the deleterious effects of ethylene in vegetables.

Responses of early, mid and late season apple cultivars to postharvest application of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) under air and controlled atmosphere storage conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential for commercial application of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) to maintain quality of apples under air and controlled atmosphere (CA) storage conditions was investigated.

Differential Expression and Internal Feedback Regulation of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate Synthase, 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate Oxidase, and Ethylene Receptor Genes in Tomato Fruit during Development and Ripening
Akira Nakatsuka,Shiho Murachi,Hironori Okunishi,Shinjiro Shiomi,Ryohei Nakano,Yasutaka Kubo,Akitsugu Inaba +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that in tomato fruit the preclimacteric system 1 ethylene is possibly mediated via constitutively expressed LE-ACS1A and LE- ACS3 and negatively feedback-regulated LE-acS6 genes with preexisting Le-ACO1 and LE -ACO4 mRNAs as a result of a positive feedback regulation.

Herbivore-induced ethylene suppresses a direct defense but not a putative indirect defense against an adapted herbivore.
Johannes Kahl,David H. Siemens,Rob J. Aerts,Ralph Gäbler,Frank Kühnemann,Catherine A. Preston,Ian T. Baldwin +6 more
TL;DR: Because parasitoids of Manduca larvae are sensitive to the dietary intake of nicotine by their hosts, this ethylene-mediated switching from direct to putative indirect defense may represent an adaptive tailoring of a plant's defense response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of 1-MCP and propylene to identify ethylene-dependent ripening processes in mature banana fruit
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) at a preclimacteric stage and at intervals of 6, 12 and 24 hours after propylene treatment (HAPT) to initiate ripening.
