INVERTASE IN FLOWER BUDS AND MATURE FLOWERS OF SNAPDRAGON
Invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) is an important enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism. This sucrose hydrolyzing enzyme was extracted and partially purified from mature flowers stored at -75° C, and fresh flower buds of snapdragon (Anthirrinum majus L.). Purification steps were precipitation with ammonium sulfate (25% to 80%) and two column chromatography ...

ETHEPHON REDUCES PEACH FLOWER BUD REHARDENING [PDF]
Peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch cv Jerseydawn and Jerseyglo) flower bud hardiness was studied using exotherm analysis following application of ethephon ((2-chloroethyl) phosphoric acid, 0.7mM) in October. Rehardening varied with temperature (7 or 21C), cultivar, ethephon treatment, and sampling date.
