Mango (Mangifera indicaL. cv. Tainong) fruits were harvested at the green-mature stage in Hainan and air-freighted to the laboratory at Peking. The fruits were treated with either 1 μl l−11-MCP or 5 μl l−1ethylene for 24 h and stored at 20°C for up to 16 days. 1-MCP maintained fruit firmness, whereas exogenous ethylene decreased fruit firmness. Exogenous ethylene accelerated the increase in ethylene and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase, whereas 1-MCP reduced both. Exogenous ethylene stimulated and 1-MCP inhibited the production of H2O2of mango fruit during storage. Ascorbic acid was maintained at a high concentration in 1-MCP-treated fruit but was low in ethylene-treated fruit. 1-MCP inhibited activities of antioxidant enzymes including catalase, superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase. These results suggest that 1-MCP could play a positive role in regulating the activated oxygen metabolism balance.
