Effect of a ± 20% variation of the ETHY parameters on the average value of O₂, CO₂, ATP, ACC, MACC, and C₂H₄ concentrations, and fruit respiration and C₂H₄ emission

Values are expressed as a percentage of the reference condition. The analysis was performed using the inputs of treatment 18 leaves per fruit in 1993.
