Study on the Dose Screening and Effect of 3-decene-2-one on inhibiting Potato Sprouting
This study investigates the inhibitory effect of the novel sprout inhibitor 3-decene-2-one on potato sprouting,providing a reference for its application in potato preservation.Using the potato variety Qingshu 9 as the test material,potatoes were subjected to fumigation treatments with 3-decene-2-one at doses of 0.05,0.10,0.15,0.20,and 0.30 mL/kg to assess the sprouting inhibition and determine the appropriate dose.Effects of the optimal dose of 3-decene-2-one on physiological indicators,including weight loss rate,respiration intensity,antioxidant enzyme activity,and membrane lipid peroxidation in potatoes,were studied.The results indicated that the suitable dose of 3-decene-2-one is 0.15 mL/kg,which significantly reduces weight loss,respiration intensity,and membrane lipid peroxidation during storage,while increasing antioxidant enzyme activity of SOD and CAT in potatoes.
