Preharvest aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) effects on ethylene and starch concentrations of ‘Empire’ and ‘McIntosh’ apples
TLDR
Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) were used to delay apple fruit maturation and ripening, and thereby reduce fruit drop and manage harvest logistics.About:

Effects of preharvest regulation of ethylene on carbohydrate metabolism of apple (Malus domestica Borkh cv. Starkrimson) fruit at harvest and during storage
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of pre-harvest regulation of ethylene on apple fruit carbohydrate metabolism and quality at harvest and during storage were investigated, and the results indicated that Harvista may be a useful tool applied at preharvest to maintain fruit quality and to maintain the fruit firmness during storage.

Combined effects of aminoethoxyvinylglycine and MAP on the fruit quality of kiwifruit during cold storage and shelf life
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of postharvest aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) treatments on quality traits and bioactive compounds of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa cv. ‘Hayward’) during cold storage and shelf life periods were investigated.

Physiological disorder development of ‘Honeycrisp’ apples after pre- and post-harvest 1-methycyclopropene (1-MCP) treatments
TL;DR: In this paper, 1-methycyclopropene (1-MCP) was used to investigate the interactions between ethylene and development of physiological disorders in "Honeycrisp" apples during storage.

Preharvest Application of 1-Methylcyclopropene and Ethephon Altered Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis and Fruit Quality of Apples at Harvest and During Cold Storage
TL;DR: In this article, a sprayable 1-methylcyclopropene, 1-MCP, available component is 150 g/ha and Ethephon (1 mL/L) applied at pre-harvest in apple (Malus domestica Borkh. cv. Golden Delicious) fruit cuticular wax biosynthesis, the expression of genes related to fruit CWS biosynthesis and signaling, ethylene production rate, respiration rate, wax constituents and structure, and fruit quality were determined at harvest and during cold storage.

Ethylene biosynthesis: Identification of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid as an intermediate in the conversion of methionine to ethylene.
Douglas O. Adams,Shang Fa Yang +1 more
TL;DR: Data indicate the following sequence for the pathway of ethylene biosynthesis in apple tissue: methionine --> S-adenosylmethionine ― ACC ― ethylene --> methylthioadenosine --> ACC --> ethylene.

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.

Assay for and enzymatic formation of an ethylene precursor, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid.
TL;DR: Mature fruits of the rin (non-ripening) mutant of tomato, which only produce low levels of ethylene, contained much lower levels of ACC and of the ACC-forming enzyme activity than wild-type tomato fruits of comparable age.

Effect of 1-methylcyclopropene and methylenecyclopropane on ethylene binding and ethylene action on cut carnations
TL;DR: Most of the natural increase in ethylene production during senescence is prevented by treatment with 1-MCP, and a closely related compound, methylenecyclopropane shows ethylene activity.
