Abstract
The effect of methyl jasmonate (JA-Me) applied in concentration 1.0 % in lanolin paste to detached tomato fruits at the mature green, advanced mature green and light red stages on the ethylene production and l-aminocyclopropane-l-carboxylic acid (ACC) content was investigated at different times after treatment. JA-Me stimulated ethylene production in all stages of ripening, but the level of ACC increased or decreased in comparison with control depending on the stage of ripening. Higher level of ACC in JA-Me treated tissue was found in mature green stage and fully ripened tomatoes-treated at advanced green stage; lower one in light red stage — treated at advanced green stage and fully ripened stage - treated at light red stage.
