Verbatim
e0“The effect of coronatine on abscission in Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck `Hamlin' and `Valencia' orange fruit, leaves, fruitlets, and flowers was determined”
e5“A slight chlorosis developed in the canopy of whole trees sprayed with coronatine, and chlorophyll content was reduced relative to adjuvant-treated controls”

Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Coronatine at 200 mg/L significantly reduced fruit detachment force of mature citrus fruit.
- Intervention effect Coronatine did not cause fruitlet or flower loss in Valencia orange.
- Intervention effect Coronatine treatment caused cumulative leaf loss of 18%.
- Intervention effect Coronatine treatment stimulated ethylene production in mature fruit and leaves.
- Intervention effect Coronatine treatment upregulated ACO gene expression in citrus.
- Intervention effect Coronatine treatment upregulated 12-oxo-PDAR gene expression in citrus.
- Intervention effect Coronatine reduced chlorophyll content relative to adjuvant-treated controls.
- Intervention effect Leaves formed after coronatine application had chlorophyll contents similar to controls.
- Intervention effect Coronatine differed from methyl jasmonate, 5-chloro-3-methyl-4-nitro-pyrazole and ethephon in ethylene production and ACO and 12-oxo-PDAR gene expression.
- Intervention effect Coronafacic acid and coronamic acid did not cause mature fruit abscission.
- Recommendation Low coronatine yield during fermentation must be overcome before coronatine is considered as a citrus abscission material.
