Cape gooseberry fruits are highly perishable with a limited shelf-life. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of refrigeration on the postharvest behavior of 1-methylcyclopropene-treated cape gooseberry fruits with the calyx. A completely randomized design with six treatments was used. The treatments were three storage temperatures (2, 6 and 16°C [ambient temperature]) and the application or absence of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP; 1 mL L-1). The fruits were stored for 35 days. The fruits without refrigeration lasted 21 days. During the 35 days of refrigerated storage, the fruits at 2°C with 1-MCP showed a significantly lower respiration rate, color index and total soluble solids content and a higher firmness value and total acidity. Storage at 6°C also generated a favorable effect on the postharvest preservation of cape gooseberry fruits.

Los frutos de uchuva son altamente perecederos con limitada vida útil. El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el efecto de la refrigeración sobre el comportamiento poscosecha de frutos de uchuva con cáliz tratados con 1-metilciclopropeno. Se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar con seis tratamientos, correspondientes a tres temperaturas de almacenamiento (2, 6 y 16°C [ambiente]), y la aplicación o no de 1-metilciclopropeno (1-MCP; 1 mL L-1). Los frutos fueron almacenados por 35 d. Se encontró que los frutos sin refrigeración tuvieron una duración de 21 d. Durante los 35 días de almacenamiento refrigerado, los frutos a 2°C con 1-MCP presentaron significativamente menor tasa respiratoria, índice de color y sólidos solubles totales, mayor firmeza y acidez total titulable. El almacenamiento a un efecto favorable en la conservación poscosecha de los frutos de uchuva.
