At the breaking point: developmental and molecular insights into Physalis grisea fruit abscission
Fruit abscission is an agronomically important trait that would benefit from a deeper molecular understanding. Despite a prominent, deleterious, fruit drop phenotype, fruit abscission has yet to be characterized in Physalis grisea (groundcherry). Here we

SUMMARY The abscission checkpoint pauses the progression of cytokinetic abscission at the intercellular bridge when various checkpoint-sustaining errors are sensed. A unique cytoplasmic organelle, the abscission checkpoint body (ACB), forms when the abscission checkpoint is active.

Relationship of Pectic Enzymes to Abscission
A comprehensive review of work pertinent to changes in the separation zone prior to abscission is presented. Since these changes are largely pectic in nature the involvement of pectic enzymes is suggested.

Physiological studies of the abscission process in non-model species require a profound knowledge of both the specific characteristics of the crop/variety and the multiple factors that are involved in the induction of the process.

Knowledge of the cell separation processes underlying organ abscission is limited mainly to the eudicot model systems tomato and Arabidopsis, while less is known about the mechanisms in crop species in general, and monocots in particular.

Background Macadamia species are valuable nut trees, and physiological fruit abscission severely reduces their yield. An inadequate carbohydrate supply is the main cause of physiological abscission in macadamia; however, the molecular mechanism of their ...

Ultrastructural observationof lemon fruit abscission
Ultrastructural changes in the abscission zone between ovary wall and floral disc were followed during abscission of young lemon (Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f. cultivar 'Villafranca') fruit explants.

ATR mediated regulation of the abscission checkpoint
Unperturbed mitotic cell division is essential for survival. For cells to complete mitosis, genetic material must be distributed equally between the new cells before the final abscission.

LcMPK3 and LcMPK6 positively regulate fruitlet abscission in litchi
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades have been discovered to play a fundamental role in regulating organ abscission. However, the identity of protein substrates targeted by MAPK cascades, as well as whether the role of MAPK protein cascades ...

Flower abscission in potted Plectranthus.
Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Piertermaritzburg, 2013.Transport and post-harvest handling of flowers both cut and potted is one of the greatest challenges in the horticulture industry (REDMAN et al., 2002).
