First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method of enhancing apple coloration comprising applying a mixture of about 300 ppm 1-amino-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid, and about 300 ppm methyl jasmonate to apples. 2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein 1-amino-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid is applied at a rate from about 1 to about 1,000 grams per hectare. 3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein 1-amino-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid is applied at a rate from about 10 to about 500 grams per hectare. 4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein 1-amino-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid is applied at a rate from about 50 to about 300 grams per hectare. 5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein methyl jasmonate is applied at a rate from about 1 to about 1,000 grams per hectare. 6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein methyl jasmonate is applied at a rate from about 10 to about 500 grams per hectare. 7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein methyl jasmonate is applied at a rate from about 50 to about 300 grams per hectare. 8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises one or more excipients selected from the group consisting of solvents, anti-caking agents, stabilizers, defoamers, slip agents, humectants, dispersants, wetting agents, thickening agents, emulsifiers, penetrants, adjuvants, synergists, polymers, propellants and preservatives.
