Summary

DAMINOZIDE-TREATED AND NONTREATED < DELICIOUS > AND < IDARED > APPLES WERE STORED FOR 7 TO 7.5 MONTHS IN SIMULATED LOW-ETHYLENE (LOWER THAN 1 MICROL/L) OR NORMAL-ETHYLENE (500 MICROL/L) CONTROLLED-ATMOSPHERE STORAGE AT 273 K (0 DEG C). THE ATMOSPHERE CONTAINED 2.5-3% O2, 3% CO2, 94-94.5% N2, AND NEARLY 100% RH. NONTREATED < DELICIOUS > AND < IDARED > APPLES DID NOT RESPOND TO LOW-ETHYLENE CA, EXCEPT THAT LOW-ETHYLENE CA REDUCED THE INCIDENCE OF STORAGE SCALD ON < DELICIOUS > APPLES. DAMINOZIDE-TREATED < DELICIOUS > APPLES DID NOT RESPOND TO LOW-ETHYLENE CA. THE DAMINOZIDE TREATMENT SIGNIFICANTLY SUPPRESSED THE ETHYLENE PRODUCTION OF BOTH CULTIVARS IN SIMULATED LOW-ETHYLENE CA STORAGE.
