Postharvest quality of 'Cripps Pink' apple fruit influenced by ethylene antagonists during controlled atmosphere storage with photocatalytic oxidation.

The NC and BC have the potential to be used as ethylene antagonists in 'Cripps Pink' apple fruit stored in a controlled atmosphere with PCO. The efficacy of different concentrations of NC and BC in downregulating ethylene action, as well as interactive effects of PCO on the performance of ethylene antagonists, still warrants further investigation. © 2022 The Authors.
