Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Dip infiltration was preferable to vacuum infiltration for inhibitor addition because vacuum infiltration damaged tissue and induced respiration.
- Intervention effect Actinomycin D did not inhibit banana peel respiration.
- Intervention effect Cycloheximide almost eliminated ethylene induced respiration peaks.
- Intervention effect Cycloheximide rapidly stimulated carbon dioxide production.
- Intervention effect D-threo-chloramphenicol slightly reduced basal respiration before ethylene treatment.
- Intervention effect Applied ethylene overcame the effect of D-threo-chloramphenicol on respiration.
- Intervention effect Puromycin did not reduce respiration after ethylene treatment.
- Observation Free amino acid and protein contents remained unchanged during ethylene stimulated respiration.
- Mechanism The authors infer that ethylene stimulated respiration may not require de novo protein synthesis.
