Résumé

Harvested apricots (Prunus armeniaca L. cv Mauricio) were treated with putrescine (1 mM), then mechanically damaged with a 25 N force and stored at 10 °C for 6 days. Putrescine treatment increased fruit firmness and reduced the bruising zones caused by the mechanical damage. Putrescine-treated fruits (both damaged and non-damaged) showed different physiological behaviour than controls. Colour change, weight loss, ethylene emission, and respiration rate were reduced in putrescine-treated fruits. Spermidine concentrations increased significantly following the compression in control apricots, which could be considered as a physiological marker of mechanical damage.
