Effects of Ethephon on Olive Ripening1
Abstract Solutions of (2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid (ethephon) at 1000, 1500, and 2000 ppm were sprayed on trees of ‘Giarraffa’ olive ( Olea europaea L.) time midway between the onset of pit hardening, and the maximum respiratory rate induced early pigmentation of drupes ...

The effects of ethephon on saskatoon (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt) fruit ripening
Field experiments were conducted on two cultivars of saskatoon to test the effectiveness of ethephon in stimulating uniform fruit ripening without compromising fruit quality. Shrubs of cultivars Northline and Smoky were sprayed to runoff with ethephon (0,

Reactive oxygen species, antioxidants and the regulation of plant development
The regulation of axillary bud outgrowth by the interplay between phytohormone and redox signals. Axillary bud outgrowth is regulated by cellular energy status and the balance between phytohormones, notably abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellic acid (GA).

Abstract Cover crops (CCs) have gained popularity in continuous crop production systems due to their agroecosystem benefits. This study evaluated the effects of nine CC treatments (single or multispecies) and no cover crop (noCC) on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth characteristics, production, and economic returns in the Mid‐South United States ...

Two distinct alcohol dehydrogenase classes mediate bacterial 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate catabolism
Abstract Phosphonates are molecules containing a direct carbon‐phosphorus bond. In nature, these compounds are produced by a variety of organisms, and many environmental microbes are able to degrade specific phosphonates and feed on them. This work focuses on 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate (HEP)—a natural compound that is found frequently in the environment,
