ALDAZ, Andrea et al. Efecto del 1-metilciclopropeno en la inhibición del etileno durante la maduración de babaco (Vasconcellea x heilbornii var. Pentagona). Siembra [online]. 2017, vol.4, n.1, pp.76-80. ISSN 2477-8850. https://doi.org/10.29166/siembra.v4i1.502.
This article analyzes the effect of 1-Meticlclclpropen on the inhibition of ethylene in babaco fruit (Vasconcellea x heilbornii var. Pentagona), with three ripe stages and three exposition times. A Complete Random Design with four repetitions was used. The variables under study were: loss of weight, fruit firmness, total concentration of soluble solids and percentage of titrated acidity. The lowest loss of weight was obtained for fruits harvested earlier (“Green”) and exposed to 1-Meticlciclpropen for a short period of time (7 days). In the case of fruit firmness, the best results were obtained when fruits were harvested “Green”. The total concentration of soluble solids was higher for fruits harvested in stages “Green-Yellow” and “Yellow”, while the values of titrated acidity increased with the fruit ripeness. The time of exposure to 1-Meticlclclpropen had no significant effect on fruit firmness, total concentration of soluble solids and percentage of titrated acidity.
