Background Camellia oleifera is a commercially important woody edible oil tree species in China. Yet, heavy premature fruit drop causes substantial yield losses and significantly limits the economic potential of the oil tea industry.

Actinidia arguta (A. arguta) is valued for its nutritional richness, but physiological fruit abscission severely limits production efficiency in elite cultivars. To unravel the molecular basis of this process, we compared two cultivars: abscission-prone ‘

Abscission Zone Anatomy, Development, and Separation in Nicotiana tabacum
Anatomical differences between Lizard\u27s Tail and Little Turkish varieties of Nicotiana tabacum which exist during development of the separation zone and as floral abscission occurs are described.

Repression of meristem activity genes during abscission.
Homologs of WUS (A) and OVATE (B) are specifically repressed in the abscission zone. STM (C) and AS1 (D) were repressed in the abscission zone, but also in one or more additional tissues. E–F show the repression of the SPL3 homolog and the tomato MC gene,

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

After fruit development is triggered by pollination, the abscission zone (AZ) in the fruit pedicel strengthens its adhesion to keep the fruit attached. We previously reported that xyloglucan and arabinan accumulation in the AZ accompanies the shedding of

Characterization of the North American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) inflorescence, the floret abscission zone, and its stimulation by ethylene were undertaken to gain insights into the potential for floret abscission induction as a replacement for ...

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.

Some aspects of leaf abscission in Coleus blumei.
The anatomical and histological development of the abscission zone is related to the growth of the leaf blade. It is shown that the initiation of the abscission zone coincides with a profound change in growth type of the leaf blade and a drop in the ...

Abscission is the term used to describe the process of natural separation of organs from the parent plant. This may be part of the highly programmed development of a plant, or in response to environmental stress. It enables temperate plants to overwinter
