The control of the ripening process in climacteric fruit mainly relies on the possibility of affecting ethylene biosynthesis and action. This can be achieved through genetic manipulation, by modulating environmental parameters (temperature, atmosphere composition) during storage, or using specific inhibitors of ethylene biosynthesis/perception. The effects of treatments with ethylene inhibitors on climacteric fruit, however, differ according to several factors including genotype.

Abstract
The control of the ripening process in climacteric fruit mainly relies on the possibility of affecting ethylene biosynthesis and action. This can be achieved through genetic manipulation, by modulating environmental parameters (temperature, atmosphere composition) during storage, or using specific inhibitors of ethylene biosynthesis/perception. The effects of treatments with ethylene inhibitors on climacteric fruit, however, differ according to several factors including genotype.
