Abstract

We studied changes in the intensity of ethylene release and accumulation of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid during ripening of two apple cultivars, differing in their physiological state, following treatment with haloethane derivatives or L-α-(2-aminoethoxyvinyl)-glycine. This changed both the activity of the protein polygalacturonase inhibitor in the fruit tissue and the accumulation of oligouronides. The data suggest that pretreatment with an inhibitor of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase affects ethylene release, accumulation of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid, the activity of the protein polygalacturonase inhibitor, and the potential intensity of oligouronide formation in apple fruits and tissues.
