ShareGibberellic acid and CO2 additive effect in retarding postharvest senescence of parsley.
Author(s) : LERS A., JIANG W. B., LOMANIEC E., AHARONI N.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The authors studied the effects of CO2 and gibberellic acid (GA3) on postharvest senescence and on ethylene-induced senescence of parsley. CO2, GA3 or CO2 and GA3 treatment retarded chlorophyll and protein degradation, amino acid accumulation and respiration rate, as well as the effect of ethylene on senescence. GA3 and CO2 provide an effective means of maintaining freshness in parsley.
