Abstract
Cherry tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum L. cv. BHN265) were harvested at pink-light red (P-LR) and light red-red (LR-R) stage. They were treated with 0.5μLㆍl⁻¹ 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) for 24 hours at 20℃ before storage to evaluate the effectiveness of 1-MCP for extending shelf-life. As the time elapsed after treatment, 1-MCP treated fruit showed less weight loss and more slow changes in color, firmness and titratable acidity than non-treated fruit during 41 storage days. Lower ethylene and carbon dioxide production rates in 1-MCP treated cherry tomatoes at the initial period (5~7 days) of storage appeared to be the main cause of quality maintenance. 1-MCP had an effect on the extension of shelf-life of cherry tomatoes at the P-LR and LR-R stage of development because of maintaining color, firmness and titratable acidity, especially P-LR was more effective stage than LR-R stage for 1-MCP treatment to preserve quality of cherry tomatoes according to the general appearance and the change rates of quality factors.
