Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3777-3802, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Abscission of Pistachio Flowers and Fruits as Affected by Different Pollinators

Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2007
This study was conducted in Ceylanpinar State Farm to determine influence of pollens of 9 different pollinators on the flower and fruit abscission of the pistachio. Comparison of pollinator effect on the abscission of flowers and fruits of 3 pistachio cultivars showed that pollens of Pistacia vera L.

Abscisic Acid: Correlations with Abscission and with Development in the Cotton Fruit [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1972
Abscisic acid was measured in developing cotton fruit (Gossypium hirsutum) by means of gas-liquid chromatography. High levels of abscisic acid occurred in correlation with abortion and abscission of young fruit, with low germination of immature seed, and with senescence and dehiscence of mature fruit.

Polyamine treatments: an effective strategy to improve crop yield and fruit colour and to preserve quality of ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranate fruit during storage at chilling temperatures

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 7, Page 4101-4112, May 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change in Spain is altering the optimal conditions for producing high‐quality ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranate fruit, due to reduced colour development in husk and arils. In addition, the pomegranate requires storage above 7–10 °C, depending on cultivar, to preserve its quality because it is susceptible to chilling injury (CI ...

On how auxin, ethylene and IDA-peptide relate during mature Citrus fruit abscission

, 2021
[EN] While the ethylene-auxin interactions are well documented in model dicots such as tomato (climacteric fruit) during mature fruit abscission, the process is not clearly understood in citrus (non-climacteric fruit).

Exogenous Hormone Treatments Reveal Species‐Specific Regulation of Individual Components of Root Architecture and Salt Ion Accumulation in Cultivated and Wild Tomatoes

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Hormonal signaling shapes plant architecture and salt stress responses, but its effects on root architecture and ion accumulation remain unclear. Here, we conducted a detailed analysis of how individual hormone treatments affect root architecture and ion accumulation under salt stress in tomato.

From flower buds to bolls: how cotton reproductive structures shape boll weevil development, reproduction and survival

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4576-4584, May 2026.
Female boll weevils feeding on flower buds promote reproduction regardless of their immature diet, whereas boll feeding increases lipid reserves and lifespan, revealing a nutrition‐driven trade‐off that sustains survival and reproduction in tropical boll weevil populations.

Abscission of Orange Fruit (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb.) in the Mediterranean Basin Depends More on Environmental Conditions Than on Fruit Ripeness

Agronomy, 2020
Orange fruit abscission usually occurs at the final stage of fruit maturation but in some areas of citrus production, in advance of the usual harvest period, and sometimes suddenly and intensely.

DEVELOPMENT AND ABSCISSION OF 'MAURITIUS' LITCHI FRUITS AND THE DECREASE OF ABSCISSION BY AUXIN 2,4,5-TP. [PDF]

HortScience, 1992
The rate of 'Mauritius' litchi fruit development and abscission was studied over three consecutive seasons. Two pronounced abscission waves were observed. The first started at the end of the female bloom and ended about four weeks later. Female flowers abscised at a rate of 85-90% during this period. Most of the abscised fruitlets were devoid of embryo
