“…Exposure to exogenous ethylene promotes senescence of climacteric flower petals with activation of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) syntheses and/or ACC oxidase (Borochov and Woodson, 1989) and reduces vase life. It has been reported that the sensitivity to ethylene is correlated with vase life in carnation flowers that significantly varied among cultivars (Onozaki et al, 2001(Onozaki et al, , 2008.…”

“…In Iris (van Doorn et al, 2003) and Alstroemeria (Wagstaff et al, 2003), mesophyll cells of petals degrade due to programmed cell death at an early stage of senescence. Thus, decreases in tepal thickness appear to be an index of senescence like petal dry weight, which is associated with loss of dry matter (Borochov and Woodson, 1989). It has also been reported that lily petals thin with age (Elgar et al, 1999).…”

“…Several reports support that desiccation of ovary and style in cut flowers has been observed due to endogenously produced stress ethylene during wound and water stress. 9 The production of "stress ethylene" has been clearly identified as the degradation product of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) which is derived from methionine. 23 The methionine cycle involves at a higher pace in the production of 'stress ethylene', explains the higher content of cyanide which affects healthy flower tissue leading to respiratory rate.…”

“…8 Desiccation of ovary and style was due to endogenously produced stress ethylene during stress. 9 The male reproductive development is more sensitive to environmental stresses than female reproductive development which represents certain development and sterility genes. 10 The scanning electron microscope (SEM) performed by Scholefield (1982) and many others has a potential to reveal ultrastructure of plant.…”
