Abstract
In a low ethylene environment (< 1 ppm) at 19°C, the rate of ethylene evolution was positively related to the concentration of ethylene in the cores of ‘McIntosh’ apples (Malus domestica, Borkh.). Maximum retention of flesh firmness at 1° was associated with fruit internal ethylene concentrations below I ppm, which were obtained by ethylene removal from the storage atmosphere in combination with 3 treatments to suppress ethylene biosynthesis: orchard-applied daminozide, early harvest, and low O2 tension in storage.
Abstract
The Ouchterlony immuno-double diffusion and crossed immuno-electrophoresis tests each identified one specific pollen protein in each of 5 grape cultivars. Additional proteins that were common provided evidence for ‘White Roumi’ being closely related to ‘Red Roumi’ and ‘Italia’ and distantly related to ‘Thompson Seedless’. An intermediate but close serological relationship was also identified between ‘Italia’ and both ‘Bez-EI-Nakah’ and ‘Thompson Seedless’.
