Effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment on sweet basil leaf senescence and ethylene production during shelf-life

The effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) on shelf-life and postharvest quality of sweet basil detached leaves was examined. Treatment with 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 g m −3 1-MCP for 8 h was conducted at 15 °C in the dark. After the treatment the leaves were packed in polyethylene bags then sealed and store...
