Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect 1-MCP inhibited ethylene production and respiration rates with or without DPA.
- Intervention effect 1-MCP maintained low internal ethylene, alpha-farnesene, and conjugated trienol concentrations.
- Intervention effect DPA inhibited conjugated trienol accumulation.
- Intervention effect DPA had little effect on the other listed ethylene and respiratory factors.
- Intervention effect Treatment effects on peroxidase and PPO activities were inconsistent.
