Novel Gaseous Ethylene Binding Inhibitor Prevents Ethylene Effects in Potted Flowering Plants
TL;DR: In this paper, a 6-hour fumigation of flowering Begonia ×elatior hybrida Fotsch. 'Victory Parade' plants with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), a gaseous nonreversible ethylene binding inhibitor, strongly inhibited exogenous ethylene effects such as bud and flower drop, leaf abscission, and accelerated flower senescence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of 1-MCP on the vase life and ethylene response of cut flowers
TL;DR: In the presence of 1 μl·l−1 ethylene, the vase life of 1-MCP-treated flowers was up to 4 times that of the controls, and other ethylene-sensitive cut flowers responded similarly to carnations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microarray analysis of the abscission-related transcriptome in the tomato flower abscission zone in response to auxin depletion.

TL;DR: Results confirm the hypothesis that acquisition of ethylene sensitivity in the AZ is associated with altered expression of auxin-regulated genes resulting from auxin depletion and shed light on the regulatory control of abscission at the molecular level and further expand the knowledge of Auxin-ethylene cross talk during the initial controlling stages of the process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethylene and flower senescence
Michael S. Reid,Men-Jen Wu +1 more
TL;DR: Examination of other flowers shows that the carnation is not a universal paradigm for flower senescence, and the response to ethylene varies widely, and in many species petal wilting occurs without any apparent involvement of ethylene.
Book ChapterDOI
Ethylene in Plant Growth, Development, and Senescence
TL;DR: Although the majority of studies have concentrated on particular processes, particularly fruit ripening, flower senescence, and abscission, many other reported responses of plants to ethylene may be important parts of normal growth and development.
