The structural and floristic diversity contained therein harbors a high biodiversity of associated organisms. The recent trend of reducing this shade cover so as to increase production raises concerns ...
متن کاملSensitivity of Avocado Fruit to Ethylene
The respiration of individual 'Hass' and 'Fuerte' fruit was monitored during storage at 8oC and 10oC respectively for 14 days, under a continuous flow of humidified air containing ethylene (C2H4) at 0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.25, 1.0 and 5.0 μL.L. Respiration rates of 'Fuerte' fruit under 0.01 μL.L C2H4 were significantly higher than the controls after 3.3 days of storage, but for 'Hass' fruit respiratio...
