Ethylene is a gaseous hormone which plays an essential role in a myriad of plant developmental processes, both by stimulation and inhibition of growth. Ethylene can promote root hair formation, flowering, fruit ripening and abscission, as well as leaf and petal senescence and abscission. Its role...
Ethylene is a gaseous plant hormone affecting multiple aspects of plant development. Besides playing a primary role in ripening, abscission, and senescence, it controls many aspects of vegetative growth and plays a crucial role in plant stress responses. Small molecules which act as ethylene agonists...
Ethylene, unlike the other growth regulators, is a gaseous hormone. Among all these regulators, ethylene possesses the simplest structure. It is produced in all higher plants from methionine in almost all the tissues. The first step in ethylene biosynthesis is the conversion of S-adenosyl-methionin...
Ethylene, Polyamines and Fruit RipeningEthylene is a gaseous plant hormone which influences many aspects of plant growth, development and senescence. In addition, ethylene is produced by fungi and bacteria, and potentially influences...doi:10.1007/978-94-011-4661-6_133Roshni Mehta...
Ethylene (ethene), CH2CH2, is the simplest molecule containing a carbon-carbon double bond. It is a gaseous plant hormone that plays pleotropic roles in plant growth, plant development, fruit ripening, stress responses, and pathogen defenses[1]. ...
Ethylene is a gaseous hormone produced by plants that influences many important processes in plants including growth, development, and responses to stresses. The signal-transduction pathway for ethylene has been defined in plants and first involves the binding of ethylene to receptors that contain a ...

Ethylene is a versatile gaseous plant hormone that plays considerable roles in rice growth, development and environmental adaptability. Translational control enables the mRNA to be translated in an mRNA-selective, signal-responsive a...
Ethylene, a gaseous plant hormone, influences plant growth, development, and response to various stresses and pathogen infection. Ethylene is synthesized from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) via...doi:10.1007/978-94-017-9484-8_1Juan XuCollege of Life Sciences, Zhejiang UniversityShuqun Zhang...
Ethylene is a simple gaseous plant hormone produced by higher plants, bacteria and fungi. Thanks to new tools that have become available in biochemistry and molecular genetics, parts of the ethylene biosynthesis, perception and signal transduction reactions have been elucidated. This knowledge has been...
