Abstract

The results show that the antistaling effect of 1-methylcyclopropene on tomato is notable at very low concentration. After 12 hours confined fumigation, the storage of smart green tomato fruits could be elongated about 10 days at room temperature conditions and redden entirely 15 days later, hardness and acidity reduction are both slowed, the content of vitamin C declines rapidly, while the speed of soluble solids content changes little. By treatment on dosage of 35 mg/m3 and 70 mg/m3, the decay rate of tomato fruits could be controlled below 30% after 30 days storage, and to maintain a fairly good flavor and quality.
