Effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment on firmness and softening related enzymes of 'Sekaki' papaya fruit during ripening at ambient
1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) has been found to inhibit ethylene action and thus it can delay the fruit ripening process. The effects of 1-MCP (90 ppb for 12 h) on softening related changes were determined through physiological changes, fruit firmness and activities of the cell wall degrading enzymes...
