The floral abscission zone in series Acaulia and related taxa of Solanum section Petota
Species of the genus Solanum usually possess pedicels with a floral abscission zone, which is designated the "articulation" or "joint." A distinct group of tuber-bearing wild potatoes, series Acaulia, is characterized by an indistinct or completely ...

The abscission of tomato leaves occurs in the petiole abscission zone, and its late stage includes two spatially divided processes: cell separation and programmed cell death (PCD). Both of these processes are regulated by ethylene.

Background Small RNAs regulate a wide variety of processes in plants, from organ development to both biotic and abiotic stress response. Being master regulators in genetic networks, their biogenesis and action is a fundamental aspect to characterize in ...

Background Elymus sibiricus is an important forage grass in semi-arid regions, but it is difficult to grow for commercial seed production due to high seed shattering. To better understand the underlying mechanism and explore the putative genes related to

Transcriptome Analysis of the Development of Pedicel Abscission Zone in Tomato
Plant organ abscission is a common phenomenon that occurs at a specific position called the abscission zone (AZ). The differentiation and development of the pedicel AZ play important roles in flower and fruit abscission, which are of great significance ...

Sphingolipids, found in membranes of eukaryotic cells, have been demonstrated to carry out functions in various processes in plant cells. However, the roles of these lipids in fruit abscission remain to be determined in plants.

Diversity and Functional Dynamics of Fleshy Fruit Abscission Zones
We examine the current knowledge about the abscission of fleshy fruit, in particular with regards to the development and function of the abscission zone (AZ). While tomato is currently the main model species to elucidate the mechanisms of fleshy fruit abscission, most studies on tomato focus on the development and function of the pedicel AZ, which is ...

Ethylene biosynthesis in peach fruitlet abscission
Ethylene biosynthesis was studied in the peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) fruitlet abscission zone (AZ), located between pedicel and pericarp and responsible for the shedding of the fruit, Explants, made up of the abscission layer and small parts of ...

Development of the Abscission Zone in the Pedicels of Potato Plants.
The development of the abscission zone in potato flower pedicels was compared between two cultivars. Cells of the abscission zone formed at the sepal-developing stage in 'May Queen', and the at petal-developing stage in 'Toyoshiro'. These cells were found initially in the epidermal and cortical regions of the pedicel.
