Abstract

Abstract Spraying trees of ‘King of the Pippin’ and ‘Golden Delicious’ ( Malus domestica Borkh.) with the substituted amino acid aminoethoxyvinylglycine hydrochloride (AVG), within 1 month of harvest delayed fruit ripening, reduced preharvest drop, and increased fruit removal force (FRF). Five sprays of 5 × 10 -4 m AVG inhibited the development of the climacteric of ‘Golden Delicious’ apple fruits. Reduced biosynthesis of ethylene was probably responsible for these effects. Naphthaleneacetic acid and AVG synergistically reduced ethylene biosynthesis and warrant further investigation, especially in connection with preharvest drop.
