Acta Agrobotanica, 2016 We have found that auxin, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) substantially induces the formation of the secondary abscission zone in stem and petiole explants and in decapitated stem and petiole after excision of blade in intact plants of Bryophyllum calycinum ...

Preliminary Study on Programmed Cell Death during Calyx Abscission of Korla Fragrant Pear
HorticulturaeProgrammed cell death (PCD) is common in plant growth and development, such as xylem development, organ senescence, and abscission. Calyx abscission in Korla fragrant pear contributes to fruit quality, while it was not clear whether PCD occurred during ...

A petal breakstrength meter for Arabidopsis abscission studies
Plant Methods, 2006 Background Abscission is the regulated dropping of plant organs, such as leaves or flower petals. This process involves a break down of the cell wall between layers of cells in the abscission zone, causing the organ to become detached.

Abscission cues generated within the abscising organ and perceived by the abscission zone in woody fruit crops [PDF]
Fruit ResearchFrom an evolutionary perspective, fruit abscission is an intelligent regulatory mechanism by which fruit trees adapt to their environment and ensure offspring.

Microarray Analysis of the Abscission-Related Transcriptome in the Tomato Flower Abscission Zone in Response to Auxin Depletion [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2010 AbstractThe abscission process is initiated by changes in the auxin gradient across the abscission zone (AZ) and is triggered by ethylene. Although changes in gene expression have been correlated with the ethylene-mediated execution of abscission, there is almost no information on the molecular and biochemical basis of the increased AZ sensitivity to ...

Plant Science, 2022 Yellow lupine is an economically important crop. This species has been used as a great model for abscission processes for several years due to extreme flower abortion, which takes place in the abscission zone (AZ). AZ activation involves modifications of cell walls, membranes, and cellular structure.

The Yes and No of the Ethylene Involvement in Abscission [PDF]
Plants, 2019 Abscission has significant implications in agriculture and several efforts have been addressed by researchers to understand its regulatory steps in both model and crop species. Among the main players in abscission, ethylene has exhibited some fascinating

Ethephon induced oxidative stress in the olive leaf abscission zone enables development of a selective abscission compound [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2017 Table olives (Olea europaea L.), despite their widespread production, are still harvested manually. The low efficiency of manual harvesting and the rising costs of labor have reduced the profitability of this crop. A selective abscission treatment, inducing abscission of fruits but not leaves, is crucial for the adoption of mechanical harvesting of ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Mulberry holds significant economic value. However, during the ripening stage of its fruit, the phenomenon of abscission, resulting in heavy fruit drop, can severely impact the yield. The formation of off-zone structures is a critical factor in the fruit
