Influence of 1-Methylcyclopropene on the biochemical response and ripening of ‘solo' papayas

Ohashi, Thaís Luri; Foukaraki, Sofia; Souza Corrêa, Daniel; Ferreira, Marcos David; Terry, Leon A. (Sociedade Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2016-06-20)

The market demand for tropical fruits has been growing steadily over the past two decades and global papaya production has grown significantly over the last few years. This sector, however, suffers greatly from postharvest ...
Investigation into the role of endogenous abscisic acid during ripening of imported avocado cv. Hass

Meyer, Marjolaine D.; Chope, Gemma A.; Terry, Leon A. (Wiley, 2017-02-23)

BACKGROUND The importance of ethylene in avocado ripening has been extensively studied. In contrast, little is known about the possible role of abscisic acid (ABA). The present work studied the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene ...
New insights into the effects of ethylene on ABA catabolism, sweetening and dormancy in stored potato tubers

Tosetti, R.; Waters, Amanda; Chope, Gemma A.; Cools, K.; Alamar, M. Carmen; McWilliam, S.; Thompson, Andrew J.; Terry, Leon A. (Elsevier, 2020-12-08)

Continuous ethylene supplementation suppresses postharvest sprouting, but it can increase reducing sugars, limiting its use as an alternative to chlorpropham for processing potatoes. To elucidate the mechanisms involved, ...
