1-Methylcyclopropene application significantly improves quality retention during storage.
Respiration rate metrics were lower in treated apples, highlighting the efficacy of this approach.
Analysis of fruit maturity stages revealed distinct differences in quality attributes during cold storage.
Optimal use of 1-MCP may enable better marketability of apples by maintaining quality over time.
