Summary

The effects of various concentrations of volatile compounds (methyl jasmonate, absolute ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, 1-propanol and methanol) on the quality of fresh-cut kiwifruit were investigated. Methyl jasmonate induced less decay, higher sugar and organic acid levels but did not affect ethylene production.
