Union Square Ballroom, Mezzanine Level
Induced cells of Rhodococcus rhodochrous DAP 96253, when placed in the
proximity of climacteric fruit (peaches, bananas, avocados) delay the
ripening of the fruit. Examination of the delayed ripening shows that the
induced cells possess multiple mechanisms which have the potential to
impact the Yang-Cycle in climacteric plants, and processes such as volatile
flavor and fragrance compounds related to the climacteric process. The
suggestion is brought forward that these induced R. rhodochrous cells,
possess the ability to modify/modulate an important plant process.
