Shelf-life extender compositions, kits, and methods are provided for use with live plant items such as, for example, rootless plant cuttings and plant liners. The shelf-life extender composition is preferably applied on at least a portion of the surfaces of a live plant item prior to shipping the treated live plant item.

A clathrate of 1-methylcyclopropene with α-cyclodextrin, obtained as a solid particulate product, is modified by comminuting, classifying, or both to obtain a modified particulate. When subjected to identical atmospheric disgorgement conditions of humidity and temperature, identical masses of the modified and unmodified particulates exhibit different rates of 1-methylcyclopropene disgorgement. Specifically, we have found that a smaller mean particle size is inversely related to a greater rate of 1-methylcyclopropene release.

A liposome composition having a lipid bilayer membrane, made of a crude or de-oiled lecithin, at least one triglyceride, a non-triglyceride active agent, and conditioned water. The liposome composition may be utilized for purposes and treatments including increased plant growth, insecticide or insect repellant, inhibiting fruit decay, forensic labeling of plants, wound treatment, and cosmetic applications.
