Genotoxic effect of ethephon on the root meristems of Allium cepa L. [PDF]
Genotoxic effect of ethephon [(2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid], a PGR that has replaced calcium carbide as an agent for fruit ripening, was studied by using a root chromosome assay.

Ethephon as Harvest-aid for Muscadine Grapes1
Abstract (2-Chloroethyl)phosphonic acid (ethephon) was applied at 0, 570, 1000 and 2000 ppm to muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia Mich. cv. Hunt), 1, 2, or 3 days before once-over harvest. All ethephon treatments increased berry abscission and reduced skin tear due to harvest when berries were harvested 2 days or 3 days after spraying.

Ethephon hastens ripening of Japanese plums
Reported effects of the growth regulator ethephon on fruit maturity in many crops include earlier skin color changes, earlier flesh softening, and occasional increases in soluble solids. In 1975, preharvest ethephon applications on Japanese plum (Prunus salicina) were evaluated for their influence on fruit maturation and postharvest ripening.

Influence of Ethephon stimulation on latex physiological parameters and consequences on latex diagnosis implementation in rubber agro-industry [PDF]
Latex Diagnosis (LD) is currently considered by Cirad and most of its rubber agro-industry partners as a routine physiological tool to optimise, at block level, the rubber yield production of the rubber plantations.

Some considerations concerning the panel management in rubber tapping (Hevea brasiliensis) [PDF]
Research devoted to long term panel management deserved less efforts, mainly due to the long duration required for experimentation. The present study deals with the comparison of two panel management strategies on nine clones tapped in 1/2S, over a total

Evaluation of Ethephon on in vitro Fertilization and Oxidative Stress in Female mice
Background and Objectives: Ethephon is a good and effective plant growth regulator that improves product quality. It can probably interfere with the functioning of the reproductive system.

The "double cut alternative" (DCA) tapping system: an innovative tapping system designed for Thai rubber smallholdings using high tapping frequency [PDF]
In Thailand, the continuous decrease in the size of rubber plantations has led to the general adoption of intensive tapping systems which may lead to over harvesting, high rates of tapping panel dryness (TPD), short life-cycles of the plantations, and ...
