Indole-3-butyric acid induces ectopic formation of metaxylem in the hypocotyl of Arabidopsis thaliana without conversion into indole-3-acetic acid and with a positive interaction with ethylene [PDF]
The role of the auxins indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and of the auxin-interacting phytohormone ethylene, on the ectopic formation of primary xylem (xylogenesis in planta) is still little known.

The 2HA line of Medicago truncatula has characteristics of an epigenetic mutant that is weakly ethylene insensitive [PDF]
BACKGROUND The Medicago truncatula 2HA seed line is highly embryogenic while the parental line Jemalong rarely produces embryos. The 2HA line was developed from one of the rare Jemalong regenerates and this method for obtaining a highly regenerable ...

The mitigation effects of exogenous dopamine on low nitrogen stress in Malus hupehensis
Dopamine plays numerous physiological roles in plants. We explored its role in the regulation of growth, nutrient absorption, and response to nitrogen (N) deficiency in Malus hupehensis Rehd.

Delayed yellowing of broccoli florets by ethanol: Some physio-biochemical changes during storage
Harvested broccoli heads rapidly senesces after it is severed from the mother plant due to complex metabolic processes occurring in tissues. Specifically, abrupt increase in ethylene and decline in sucrose were reported.

Postharvest physiology of cut flowers
The longevity of cut flowers is limited by their ephemeral nature and by multiple stresses. Impairment in water uptake, depletion of stored carbohydrates, increases in both respiratory activity and ethylene production are signatures of flower senescence.

Transcriptional regulation of Banana EIN3-like genes: correlation with ethylene fruit responsiveness and ripening processes [PDF]
Ethylene signal transduction initiates with ethylene binding at receptor proteins and terminates in a transcription cascade involving the EIN3/EIL transcription factors.

Establishment of Hevea brasiliensis lines overexpressing genes involved in ethylene signalling pathway [PDF]
The gaseous plant hormone ethylene has a wide variety of applications in agriculture and horticulture. Ethylene Response Factors (ERF) are the last transcription factors of the ethylene signalling pathway and control a large number of ethylene-responsive

Climacteric fruit ripening: Ethylene-dependent and independent regulation of ripening pathways in melon fruit [PDF]
Cantaloupe melons have a typical climacteric behaviour with ethylene playing a major role in the regulation of the ripening process and affecting the ripening rate.
