Effect of 1-methylcyclopropene and ethylene on the physiology of peach fruits (Prunus persica L.) cv. Dorado during storage
The peach (Prunus persica L., family Rosaceae) is a drupe that is consumed fresh and used in industry; it has a climacteric behavior and, because of its high water content, is highly perishable. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and ethylene on the postharvest p...

description | The peach (Prunus persica L., family Rosaceae) is a drupe that is consumed fresh and used in industry; it has a climacteric behavior and, because of its high water content, is highly perishable. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and ethylene on the postharvest physiology of peach fruits cv. Dorado. Harvested fruits with 100% green, 0% yellow skin color were used in a completely randomized design with four treatments: ethylene, 1-MCP, 1-MCP+ethylene and a control. After treatment, the fruits were stored at room temperature. During storage, the respiration rate, weight loss, firmness, color index of the skin, total soluble solids, total acidity and maturity ratio were evaluated. The results showed the efficiency of 1-MCP in peach cv. Dorado: 1-MCP decreased the respiration rate, color index of the skin, soluble solids and maturity ratio, while the firmness and total acidity were greater. The ethylene application showed an opposite effect, suggesting that it may regulate a large part of peach cv. Dorado ripening. |

El durazno (Prunus persica L., familia Rosaceae) es una drupa apetecida para consumo en fresco y la industrialización; presenta un comportamiento climatérico y tiene alto contenido de agua, por lo cual se considera un fruto altamente perecedero. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto del uso de 1-metilciclopropeno (1-MCP) y etileno sobre la fisiología poscosecha de frutos de durazno, cv. Dorado. Se utilizaron frutos cosechados con color de la epidermis 100% verde, 0% amarillo, se dispusieron en un diseño completamente al azar con cuatro tratamientos que correspondieron a etileno, 1-MCP, 1-MCP+etileno y un control sin aplicación. Luego del tratamiento, los frutos fueron almacenados a temperatura ambiente. Durante el almacenamiento se evaluó la tasa respiratoria, pérdida de peso, índice de color de la epidermis, firmeza, sólidos solubles, acidez total y relación de madurez. Los resultados mostraron la eficiencia de la aplicación de 1-MCP en durazno cv. Dorado, ya que generó significativamente menor tasa de respiración, índice de color de la epidermis, sólidos solubles y relación de madurez, mientras que la acidez total y firmeza fueron mayores. Por su parte, la aplicación de etileno mostró el efecto contrario en estos procesos, indicando que al parecer regula gran parte del proceso de maduración del fruto de durazno cv. Dorado.
