To investigate the effects of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the preservation results of honey peaches (Prunus persica) during storage at (2±1)℃. The treatments of 1-MCP, MAP and 1-MCP+ MAP were used respectively to preserve honey peaches and the decay index, hardness, the content of total sol? uble solids (TSS) and Vitamin C were measured. After honey peaches were preserved with the above three treatments for 30 days, the decay index was all lower than 30%; the hardness still remained above 13.0 kg/cm2; TSS remained about 10.4% and Vitamin C was above 3.0 mg/100 g. All the three treatments could delay the decrease of the hardness, TSS and Vitamin C of the fruit and inhibit the increase of the decay index. Among the three treatments, the 1-MCP + MAP treatment showed significantly better effect than the other two.
