The Yes and No of the Ethylene Involvement in Abscission [PDF]
Abscission has significant implications in agriculture and several efforts have been addressed by researchers to understand its regulatory steps in both model and crop species. Among the main players in abscission, ethylene has exhibited some fascinating

A petal breakstrength meter for Arabidopsis abscission studies
Background Abscission is the regulated dropping of plant organs, such as leaves or flower petals. This process involves a break down of the cell wall between layers of cells in the abscission zone, causing the organ to become detached.

Re-evaluation of the ethylene-dependent and -independent pathways in the regulation of floral and organ abscission [PDF]
Abscission is a developmental process with important implications for agricultural practices. Ethylene has long been considered as a key regulator of the abscission process. The existence of an ethylene-independent abscission pathway, controlled by the complex of INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION (IDA) peptide and the HAESA (HAE) and HAESA-like2 ...

New clothes for the jasmonic acid receptor COI1: delayed abscission, meristem arrest and apical dominance. [PDF]
In a screen for delayed floral organ abscission in Arabidopsis, we have identified a novel mutant of CORONATINE INSENSITIVE 1 (COI1), the F-box protein that has been shown to be the jasmonic acid (JA) co-receptor.

Regulatory Mechanisms Underlying Activation of Organ Abscission [PDF]
Abscission is a tightly regulated developmental process that initiates in response to endogenous and environmental cues. In an agricultural context, regulation of abscission has substantial effects on crop productivity and quality. Crop domestication often selected against abscission of the fruit, allowing easier harvesting.

De novo Transcriptome Sequencing and Development of Abscission Zone-Specific Microarray as a New Molecular Tool for Analysis of Tomato Organ Abscission. [PDF]
Abscission of flower pedicels and leaf petioles of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) can be induced by flower removal or leaf deblading, respectively, which leads to auxin depletion, resulting in increased sensitivity of the abscission zone (AZ) to ethylene.

Genome-wide association study identifies genomic regions under selection for domestication and agronomic traits in intermediate wheatgrass. [PDF]
Abstract Intermediate wheatgrass (IWG) (Thinopyrum intermedium, Kernza) is a perennial forage grass undergoing neo‐domestication as a grain crop. IWG provides numerous ecosystem services and has the potential to benefit rural communities as an alternative crop option with high market value.

Characterization of Two Ethephon-Induced IDA-Like Genes from Mango, and Elucidation of Their Involvement in Regulating Organ Abscission. [PDF]
In mango (Mangifera indica L.), fruitlet abscission limits productivity. The INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION (IDA) peptide acts as a key component controlling abscission events in Arabidopsis.
