Effect of a Brief CO(2) Exposure on Ethylene Production.

Effect of carbon dioxide and light on ethylene production in intact sunflower plants.

High CO(2) concentration (0.5%) increased the rate of ethylene production, measured in a continuous flow system, in intact sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants. However, the rate of ethylene production subsided to near control levels after approximately 24 hours. The effect of high CO(2) could only be observed in light. Although high CO(2) concentration had no effect on the rate of ethylene ...

Production and action of ethylene in senescing leaf discs: effect of indoleacetic Acid, kinetin, silver ion, and carbon dioxide.

Supraoptimal concentrations of indoleacetic acid (IAA) stimulated ethylene production, which in turn appeared to oppose the senescence-retarding effect of IAA in tobacco leaf discs. Kinetin acted synergistically with IAA in stimulating ethylene production, but it inhibited senescence. Silver ion and CO(2), which are believed to block ethylene binding to its receptor sites, delayed senescence in...

Production of 1-Butene via Selective Ethylene Dimerization by Addition of Bromoethane as a New Promoter to Titanium-Based Catalyst in the Presence of Tetrahydropyran Modifier and Triethylaluminum Co-Catalyst

Inhibition by calcium of senescence of detached cucumber cotyledons: effect on ethylene and hydroperoxide production.

The effect of Ca on senescence was followed in detached cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cotyledons floating on various solutions in the dark. Compared with those in water, cotyledons in 10(-4) molar CaCl(2) exhibited reduced chlorophyll loss and H(2)O(2) production, reduced and delayed ethylene production, and did not undergo a burst in CO(2) production. In contrast, Mg had little effect on cotyl...

The Effect of floodingand nutrition levels on reproductive growth stages of aerenchyma formation and ethylene production in soybean (Glycine max L)

To survey the effects of flooding during the reproductive growth stages of aerenchyma formation and ethylene production in soybean cultivar DPX experiment  the completely randomized factorial was in 2012 in Gorgan University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. Factors examined include nutrition levels in three levels (1 - inoculated with bacteria JaponicumBradyRhizobium 2 - non-inoc...
