Strategies to control tree vigour and optimise fruit production in 'Conference' pears [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The ban on the use of chlormequat (CCC) in pear orchards in 2001 forced Dutch pear growers to look for alternative methods to control tree vigour and stimulate flower bud development and fruit production.

The use of ethephon and mixtures of ethephon luith inorganic defoliants to defoliate apple nursery trees

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2015
Ethephon alone and in a mixture with inorganic defoliants was used to defoliate apple nursery trees of three cultivars: Yellow Transparent, McIntosh and Jonathan. The mixture of ethephon with copper sulphate or magnesium chlorate defoliated the trees better than ethophon or inorganic defoliants used seperately in twice as high concentrations as in a ...

Influence of ethephon stimulation on latex physiological parameters and consequences on latex diagnosis implementation in rubber agro-industry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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.

Ethephon Sprays and Cranberry Fruit Color1

open access: yesHortScience, 1972
Abstract Treatments with (2-chloroethyl)-phosphonic acid (ethephon) in the field initially caused green berries of cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) to turn pink. Untreated berries increased in redness up to commercial harvest. Preharvest ethephon applications on mature, red berries caused no change in redness, but rather a decrease in ...

CpERF‐WRI1 Manipulates Ethylene Sensing by Regulating the Expression of CpERS1 and Fruit Ripening in Papaya

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ethylene plays a crucial role in fruit ripening and is perceived by specialised receptor proteins embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. As an ethylene antagonist, 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) binds to these receptors and delays papaya ripening, but improper use can cause ripening disorders.

An evaluation of the effects of exogenous ethephon, an ethylene releasing compound, on photosynthesis of mustard (Brassica juncea) cultivars that differ in photosynthetic capacity

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2004
Background The stimulatory effect of CO2 on ethylene evolution in plants is known, but the extent to which ethylene controls photosynthesis is not clear. Studies on the effects of ethylene on CO2 metabolism have shown conflicting results.

A review of the postharvest biochemical, biophysical and biological properties of 61 cultivars of North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) fruit

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 1968-1980, 15 March 2026.
Abstract Fruit from the North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) is unfamiliar to many as a food crop and botanically unusual because it is the northernmost genus and only temperate member of the tropical Annonaceae family. It is the largest edible fruit native to North America.
