Enhancement of wound-induced ethylene synthesis by ethylene in preclimacteric cantaloupe.
Although intact fruits of unripe cantaloupe (Cucumis melo L.) produce very little ethylene, a massive increase in ethylene production occurred in response to excision. The evidence indicates that this wound ethylene is produced from methionine via 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid (ACC) as in ripening fruits. Excision induced an increase in both ACC synthase and the enzyme converting ACC to et...
متن کاملPromotion by Ethylene of the Capability to Convert 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic Acid to Ethylene in Preclimacteric Tomato and Cantaloupe Fruits.
The intact fruits of preclimacteric tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) or cantaloupe (Cucumis melo L.) produced very little ethylene and had low capability of converting 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) to ethylene. When these unripe tomato or cantaloupe fruits were treated with ethylene for 16 hours there was no increase in ACC content or in ethylene production rate, but the tiss...
متن کاملEnhancement of RNA synthesis, protein synthesis, and abscission by ethylene.
Ethylene stimulated RNA and protein synthesis in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Red Kidney) abscission zone explants prior to abscission. The effect of ethylene on RNA synthesis and abscission was blocked by actinomycin D. Carbon dioxide, which inhibits the effect of ethylene on abscission, also inhibited the influence of ethylene on protein synthesis. An aging period appears to be essential ...
متن کاملEnhancement by ethylene of cellulysin-induced ethylene production by tobacco leaf discs.
Cellulysin-induced ethylene production in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) leaf discs was enhanced several-fold by prior exposure of the leaf tissue to ethylene. This enhancement in the response of the tissue to Cellulysin increased rapidly during 4 and 8 hours of pretreatment with ethylene and resulted from greater conversion of methionine to ethylene. On treatment with Cellulysin, the content o...
متن کاملEthylene and Wound-Induced Gene Expression in the Preclimacteric Phase of Ripening Avocado Fruit and Mesocarp Discs.
Whereas intact postharvest avocado (Persea americana Mill.) fruit may take 1 or more weeks to ripen, ripening is hastened by pulsing fruit for 24 h with ethylene or propylene and is initiated promptly by cutting slices, or discs, of mesocarp tissue. Because the preclimacteric lag period constitutes the extended and variable component of the ripening syndrome, we postulated that selective gene e...
