documented. Therefore, the objectives of this field study were to quantify rates of photosynthesis (P n ) and whole plant respiration (R w ) rates as well as carbohydrate levels [i.e., water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC), storage carbohydrates (SC), and total

1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP; SmartFresh; AgroFresh, Spring House, PA) is used widely in the apple industry to control postharvest ripening and quality loss of apples in storage ( Fan et al., 1999 ; Watkins et al., 2000 ). The product is applied
