Indian jujube (Zizipliphus mauritina, cv. 'Cuimi') fruits were harvested at stage of mature-green and then treated with I-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) at two doses (0 and 600 nl l(-1)) for 12h at room temperature. Half of the fruits were coated with 1.5g/100ml of chitosan (CTS) solution after 1-MCP treatment and subsequently stored at room temperature and 80-90% relative humidity(RH). Results indicated that 600 nl l(-1) of 1-MCP, 1.5 g/100 ml of CTS or their combination were effective in terms of senescence inhibition during storage and compared to control, the storage life was extended by 7 5 and 8d, respectively. Fruits treated with the combination of 1-MCP and CTS coating showed better retention of chlorophyll content, total soluble solids, ascorbic acid and fruit firmness, delayed climacteric ethylene evolution and respiration rate, reduced stem-end rots incidence, decreased PG and LOX activities than those with other treatments. Coating alone reduced weight loss and stem-end rots incidence. It delayed the declining firmness and the onset of climacteric ethylene production and respiration rate, but did not influence the peak levels of ethylene and respiration rates. The treatment with only 1-MCP delayed the degreening process and suppressed PG and LOX activities through 10d at room temperature. The results showed that the treatment with the combination of 1-MCP and CTS coating improved greatly the storage life extension and quality maintenance of Indian jujube fruit at room temperature storage.
