Summary

DAMINOZIDE-SPRAYED < MCINTOSH > APPLES WERE STORED FOR 7.5 TO 8 MONTHS WITH FLOW-THROUGH CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERE AT 276 K (3 DEG C). HIGH ETHYLENE CAUSED SIGNIFICANT SOFTENING, BUT ITS EFFECT DIMINISHED BY LOWERING O2 CONCENTRATIONS. IN LOWER THAN 1 MICROLITRE/LITRE ETHYLENE, LOWERING O2 CONCENTRATIONS FROM 3 TO 2 AND 1% DID NOT INCREASE FRUIT FIRMNESS, BUT DID REDUCE RATES OF ETHYLENE PRODUCTION.
