Expression of Genes Encoding Protein Kinases During Flower Opening in Two Cut Rose Cultivars with Different Longevity
Authors: not saved
Abstract:
Ethylene plays an important role in wide-ranging aspects of plant growth and development, includingfruit ripening, leaf and flower senescence. In this study, the expression patterns of two genes involved in theethylene signal transduction pathway (RhCTR1 and RhCTR2) were investigated during the flower openingstages in two Rosa hybrida cultivars, ‘Black magic’ and ‘Maroussia’, which are characterized by short and longvase lives, respectively. RhCTR1 expression increased significantly during flower opening in both cultivars, but its expression level in cv. Maroussia was significantly higher than that in cv. Black magic. No variation in gene expression was detected for RhCTR2 in both cultivars. Therefore, this study showed that the vase life of the two cultivars correlated with the expression of RhCTR1, but not with that of RhCTR2, the behavior of which is typical of a constitutive gene.

Expression of ethylene biosynthetic and receptor genes in rose floral tissues during ethylene-enhanced flower opening
Ethylene production, as well as the expression of ethylene biosynthetic (Rh-ACS1-4 and Rh-ACO1) and receptor (Rh-ETR1-5) genes, was determined in five different floral tissues (sepals, petals, stamens, gynoecia, and receptacles) of cut rose (Rosa hybrida cv. Samantha upon treatment with ethylene or the ethylene inhibitor 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP). Ethylene-enhanced ethylene production occurr...

In this work, the effect of ethylene on flower opening of cut rose (Rosa hybrida) cv. Samantha was studied. However, although ethylene hastened the process of flower opening, 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene), an ethylene action inhibitor, impeded it. Ethylene promoted ethylene production in petals, but 1-MCP did not inhibit this process. Of the four ethylene biosynthetic genes tested, Rh-ACS1 and R...
