“…It was determined that ACO activity increased significantly at the beginning of grapevine flowering and continued at a high and stable level until the end of abscission (Ruperti et al ., 2001; Hilt and Bessis, 2003). Ethylene biosynthesis can be inhibited by AVG which is an ethylene biosynthesis blocker that stops the activities of ethylene biosynthesis enzymes like 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase in plant tissues (Rath et al ., 2004). AVG is commonly available in the market in the name of ReTain which is used for pre-harvest for improving physiological disorders such as fruit drop in different fruits, especially temperate fruits (Hussain and Singh, 2020).…”

The effect of different concentrations of aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG; 0 (control), 250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg/l), an ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor, on grape berry set and fruit quality was evaluated under vineyard conditions. Treatments were performed on ‘Alphonse Lavallée’ grape cultivar at full bloom stage for two years. Cluster and berry growth (length, width and weight), firmness, soluble solids content, yield, berry set, anthocyanin content and colour parameters were determined on treated and untreated (control) fruits. As a result of the study, the effects of AVG concentrations on firmness were not significant. When AVG applications were compared with control, it is determined that some quality properties were statistically affected, the others were not. Fruit set was increased by lower concentrations of AVG (250 mg/l) and anthocyanin content was increased by higher concentrations of AVG (750 mg/l).

This study was conducted to prolong the harvest date and enhance the fruit quality of 'Monroe' peaches. For this purpose, ReTain containing 15% aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) was applied to the peach fruits. AVG at concentrations of 0, 100, 150 and 200 mg l -1 was sprayed on the peaches 7, 21 and 30 days before commercial harvest. Some fruit quality parameters [fruit weight (g), fruit flesh firmness (N), soluble solids content (SSC, %), titratable acidity (TA, %), fruit colour (L*, a*, b*), sugar content, delay in harvest, ethylene production (µl kg -1 h -1 ) and respiration rate (ml CO 2 kg -1 h -1 )] were measured for each treatment. Fruit maturity was delayed about 4-6 days more in AVG-applied fruits than in the control group. A sequential harvest was completed 6-7 days before the normal harvest time. Application of AVG increased the fruit size and fruit weight of 'Monroe' peach. AVGsprayed fruits were firmer than the fruits of control group. AVG applications also decreased ethylene production and the respiration rate of fruits. As a results, application AVG of 100 or 200 mg l -1 concentrations 30 days before commercial harvest for 'Monroe' peach varieties can be recommended.
