Summary

NECTARINE FRUIT PICKED DURING THE SLOW-GROWTH PHASE EXHIBITED REDUCED C2H4 (ETHYLENE) PRODUCTION IN RESPONSE TO 1,250 AND 12,500 PPM C3H6 (PROPYLENE) WHILE FRUIT PICKED DURING THE 2ND RAPID-GROWTH PHASE DID NOT. ETHYLENE PRODUCTION BY MATURE, PRECLIMACTERIC NECTARINES DURING RIPENING IN AIR AT 293 K (20 DEG C) WAS STIMULATED BY PRIOR STORAGE IN AIR AT 273 K (0 DEG C) OR EXPOSURE TO 100 PPM C2H4 AT 273 OR 293 K. SUBSEQUENT PEAK-LEVEL C2H4 PRODUCTION WAS REDUCED BY ONE-HALF COMPARED TO AIR-STORED FRUIT.
