چکیده

Ripening reactions in pears (Pyrus communis L.) were differentially affected by an aminoethoxy analog of rhizobitoxine (l-2-amino-4-[2-aminoethoxy]-trans-3-butenoic acid) (AAR). Ethylene production of both ;Anjou' and ;Bartlett' pears was inhibited by AAR. Decrease in firmness, increase in protein N and soluble pectin were delayed by AAR in ;Anjou' but not in ;Bartlett' pears. While loss in malic acid was retarded in ;Anjou' pears, rates of citric acid accumulation and malic acid reduction were not affected by AAR in ;Bartlett' pears.

Inhibitory effect of a rhizobitoxine analog on bud growth after release from dormancy.

Application of the ethoxy analog of rhizobitoxine (l-2-amino-4-[2'-aminoethoxy]-trans-3-butenoic acid), an inhibitor of ethylene biosynthesis, inhibited growth of apple, crabapple, and apricot buds released from dormancy by chilling or by treatment with benzyladenine. When tea crabapple (Malus hupehensis [Pamp.] Rehd.) buds were sprayed once with 8.8 x 10(-3)m benzyladenine, ethylene production...

Enhancement of ethylene formation by selenoamino acids.

Selenomethionine and selenoethionine enhanced ethylene production in senescing flower tissue of Ipomoea tricolor Cav. and in auxin-treated pea (Pisum sativum L.) stem sections. This enhancement was fully inhibited by the aminoethoxy analog of rhizobitoxine. Methionine did not have a comparable promotive effect, and ethionine partly inhibited ethylene production. When [(14)C]methionine was appli...

The rhizobitoxine analog, L-2-amino-4-(2-aminoethoxy)-trans-3-butenoic acid (Ro), which effectively inhibits ethylene production in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and other tissues at concentrations at about 68 micromolar, inhibited ethylene production by about 50 to 70% in green tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) fruit slices but only by about 15% in pink and ripe tomato tissue slices. Eth...

Pear fruits (Pyrss comnunis L. var. Bartlett) were treated with solutions containing aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) using a modified vacuun infiltration method that introduced 43 milliliters solution per 100 grams tissue. At concentrations of 1 miimolar, AVG strongly inhibited ethylene production and delayed for 5 days the respiratory climacteric and accompanying ripening changes in skin color a...
