Summary

Pyrus serotina (P. pyrifolia, cultivars Kikusui and Nijisseiki) fruits, harvested 140 days after full bloom, were stored at 30, 15 or 5 deg C. Ethylene forming enzyme activity and the rate of ethylene production were greater at 30 than at 15 or 5 deg C. The peak in ethylene production was also delayed at 5 or 15 deg C, compared with 30 deg C. Fruits kept at 15 or 5 deg C had higher polyamine and ACC contents than those at 30 deg C.
