Differences in these nutritional components were observed among the varieties considered. Notable differences were found for monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, while saturated fatty acids were similar in all varieties.

However, the short edible window period of kiwifruit has seriously affected its market value. 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), as a novel ethylene inhibitor, is widely applied to delay fruit ripening and senescence. To our knowledge, there are limited studies on the effects of 1-MCP on fruit quality and metabolism of different kiwifruit varieties. Three kiwifruit cultivars (i.e., 'Xuxiang', 'Huayou', and 'Hayward') widely cultivated in China were chosen as our research objects. The variations of storage quality and metabolic characteristics of kiwifruits treated with various 1-MCP concentration (0 μL/L, 0.5 μL/L, and 1.0 μL/L) were systematically investigated. The results showed that 1-MCP treatment significantly improved the quality of kiwifruit during storage. Among them, for 'Xuxiang' and 'Hayward' varieties, 1.0 μL/L 1-MCP treatment could delay the decrease in fruit firmness, the increase in maturity index and cellulase activity, and inhibit the decrease in ascorbic acid (AsA) level. However, the 0.5 μL/L 1-MCP had a great influence on the chlorophyll content and maturity index of the 'Huayou' cultivar, and the preservation effect was satisfactory. In addition, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) based metabolomics studies revealed that 1-MCP treatment affected carbohydrates metabolism, fatty acids metabolism, and amino acids metabolism in different kiwifruit varieties. Correlation analysis indicated that sugars metabolism has the closest relationship with postharvest physiological quality.

The applied agronomic treatments induced different changes in the fatty acid profiles, content of tocopherols, macronutrients, and micronutrients in the grain of hulled and hulless oats. Plant health contributed to higher concentrations of unsaturated fatty acids and potassium in oat grain. In turn, nitrogen fertilization decreased the content of unsaturated fatty acids, potassium, and copper and increased the content of saturated fatty acids, calcium, and manganese in oat grain. At the same time, agronomic treatments reduced the tocopherol content of the grain, which implies that the nutritional value of oats increases in the absence of chemical plant protection agents. The correlations between the content of desirable chemical compounds and agronomic treatments were stronger in hulless oat grain, which may suggest that the agronomic modification of oat-based foods is more effective in this genotype. The content of exogenous alpha-linoleic acid C18:3 n-3 and alpha-tocopherol was higher in grain harvested from the control treatment (without chemical plant protection), whereas grain harvested from fully protected treatments accumulated more essential gamma-linolenic acid C18:3 n-6.
