ethylene; catalytic decomposition; resistance control technology; fruit and vegetable preservationAbstract
Fruits and vegetables are an indispensable part of a healthy diet due to their rich nutrients. However, fruits and vegetables are not suitable for preservation after harvest, and their losses account for nearly half of the total global food losses. One of the most important reasons is that ethylene is still biosynthesized after fruits and vegetables are picked, accompanied by the respiratory climacteric of fruits and vegetables. As a plant hormone, ethylene can cause fruits and vegetables to overripe, soften, and rot after harvest. Therefore, the control of ethylene in the environment where fruits and vegetables are stored is of great significance to prolong the shelf life of fruits and vegetables and reduce economic losses. This paper reviewed the research progress of ethylene resistance control methods and their applications in the regulation of fruit and vegetable preservation and provides a reference for the further development of green, efficient, safe, and economical ethylene resistance control methods and technical applications.
