Interaction of Ethylene and Other Compounds with the Ethylene Receptor: Agonists and Antagonists
TL;DR: A review on the interaction of ethylene, ethylene agonists, and antagonists with the receptor can be found in this article with the hope that the information will help lead to other compounds.

Effects of 1-Methylcyclopropene and Naphthaleneacetic Acid on Fruit Set and Expression of Genes Related to Ethylene Biosynthesis and Perception and Cell Wall Degradation in Apple
TL;DR: The effects of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) on fruit set and the expression of genes related to ethylene biosynthesis and perception and cell wall degradation in apple (Malus ·domestica Borkh) were studied when applied during the normal chemical thinning period as discussed by the authors.

Improvement of Storability and Shelf-life of ‘Blackamber’ Plums Treated with 1-methylcyclopropene
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) to evaluate the quality of 15, 30 and 50 days of storage at 0°C, immediately and after 6 days at 25°C.

Ethylene production and ethylene effects on respiration rate of postharvest sugarbeet roots
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of exogenous ethylene, an ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor, and ethylene response inhibitors on root respiration rate were determined using uninjured, severely injured, and conventionally harvested roots.

Temperature, ethylene and the postharvest performance of cut snapdragons (Antirrhinum majus)
TL;DR: Vase life of flowers stored for 5 days at a range of temperatures then placed in an interior environment was directly correlated with respiration rate at the storage temperature, and bending was significantly higher than controls (stored vertically) in all flowers stored horizontally at temperatures above 5 °C.

Inhibitors of ethylene responses in plants at the receptor level: Recent developments
Edward C. Sisler,Margrethe Serek +1 more
TL;DR: Since 1-MCP apparently is non-toxic at concentrations that are active, it may in future be available for regulating the ripening of fruits and preventing the deleterious effects of ethylene in vegetables.

Responses of early, mid and late season apple cultivars to postharvest application of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) under air and controlled atmosphere storage conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential for commercial application of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) to maintain quality of apples under air and controlled atmosphere (CA) storage conditions was investigated.

Differential Expression and Internal Feedback Regulation of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate Synthase, 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate Oxidase, and Ethylene Receptor Genes in Tomato Fruit during Development and Ripening

TL;DR: The results suggest that in tomato fruit the preclimacteric system 1 ethylene is possibly mediated via constitutively expressed LE-ACS1A and LE- ACS3 and negatively feedback-regulated LE-acS6 genes with preexisting Le-ACO1 and LE -ACO4 mRNAs as a result of a positive feedback regulation.

Herbivore-induced ethylene suppresses a direct defense but not a putative indirect defense against an adapted herbivore.

TL;DR: Because parasitoids of Manduca larvae are sensitive to the dietary intake of nicotine by their hosts, this ethylene-mediated switching from direct to putative indirect defense may represent an adaptive tailoring of a plant's defense response.

Application of 1-MCP and propylene to identify ethylene-dependent ripening processes in mature banana fruit
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) at a preclimacteric stage and at intervals of 6, 12 and 24 hours after propylene treatment (HAPT) to initiate ripening.
