چکیده

Low level red light treatments prevented dark-induced leaf abscission in mung bean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek cv Jumbo) cuttings. The amount of inhibition depended upon the level and length of the light treatment. The red light inhibition could be reversed by a brief exposure of tissue to far-red light.

Abscission: ethylene and light control.

The role of ethylene in light control of leaf abscission im mung bean, Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek cv Jumbo, cuttings was examined. While red light inhibits and far-red light promotes loss of break strength in abscission zones as compared with dark controls, changes in the rate of abscission could not be associated with changes in the rate of ethylene production. Reducing ethylene synthesis in t...

Induction of resistance to dark abscission by malformin in white light.

When cuttings or seedlings of Phaseolus aureus were treated proximally with malformin for 2 days in continuous white light, resistance to subsequent leaf abscission in the dark resulted. The amount of resistance diminished as the concentration of malformin decreased from 10 to 0.1 micromolar. Resistance to dark abscission persisted for 7 days in continuous light. Little resistance was obtained ...

Calyx biochemical changes and possibility of reducing thomson orange June drop by nutrition elements and growth regulators

Summer fruit drop (June drop) is one of the main reasons for low yield in some citrus varieties in northern Iran. Recognition of physiological changes in fruit abscission zone (calyx) and application of suitable treatments would reduce or control abscission. Hence, the changes of auxin, cellulose, and polygalacturonase in calyx of Thomson navel fruitlets were measured and their relations with a...

Fruit age and changes in abscisic Acid content, ethylene production, and abscission rate of cotton fruits.

The relationships of fruit age, abscisic acid (ABA) concentration, ethylene evolution, and abscission rates were studied in an effort to determine why cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L., cv. Deltapine 16) fruits rarely abscise more than 15 days after anthesis. Because abscission of cotton fruits is increased by conditions that limit photosynthesis, greenhouse-grown plants with fruits of various ages...

The Effect of Salicylic Acid and Zinc on Inflorescence Bud Abscission, Leaf Chlorophyll Florescence and Characteristic of Pistachio Nut Cv. Owhadi

In order to determine effect salicylic acid and Zn on characteristics of pistachio nut (Pistacia vera L. cv. Owhadi), the experiment was carried out as factorial in the framework of CRD design with three replications. The results showed that salicylic acid and Zn increased nut fresh weight and decreased blank nut percentage. The application of salicylic acid decreased splitting percentage and k...
