Membrane deterioration in senescing carnation flowers : coordinated effects of phospholipid degradation and the action of membranous lipoxygenase.
The lipid fluidity of microsomal membranes from the petals of cut carnation flowers decreases as the flowers senesce. A comparable change in fluidity was induced by in vitro aging of microsomal membranes from young flowers under conditions in which membranous lipoxygenase-like activity was active. There was no change in fluidity when the membranes were aged in the presence of inhibitors of lipo...
متن کاملComparison of mRNA levels of three ethylene receptors in senescing flowers of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.).
Three ethylene receptor genes, DC-ERS1, DC-ERS2 and DC-ETR1, were previously identified in carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.). Here, the presence of mRNAs for respective genes in flower tissues and their changes during flower senescence are investigated by Northern blot analysis. DC-ERS2 and DC-ETR1 mRNAs were present in considerable amounts in petals, ovaries and styles of the flower at the ...
متن کاملAcceleration of Membrane Senescence in Cut Carnation Flowers
The lipid microviscosity of microsomal membranes from senescing cut carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L. cv. White Sim) flowers rises with advancing senescence. The increase in membrane microviscosity is initiated within 3 to 4 days of cutting the flowers and coincides temporaDly with petal-inroDling denoting the climacteric-like rise in ethylene production. Treatment of young cut flowers with a...
متن کاملIs a cysteine proteinase inhibitor involved in the regulation of petal wilting in senescing carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) flowers?
Senescence of carnation petals is accompanied by autocatalytic ethylene production and wilting of the petals; the former is caused by the expression of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) synthase and ACC oxidase genes and the latter is related to the expression of a cysteine proteinase (CPase) gene. CPase is probably responsible for the degradation of proteins, leading to the decomposition...
متن کاملAcceleration of membrane senescence in cut carnation flowers by treatment with ethylene.
The lipid microviscosity of microsomal membranes from senescing cut carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L. cv. White Sim) flowers rises with advancing senescence. The increase in membrane microviscosity is initiated within 3 to 4 days of cutting the flowers and coincides temporally with petal-inrolling denoting the climacteric-like rise in ethylene production. Treatment of young cut flowers with a...
