Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Ethylene production peaked as seed dry weight began increasing.
- Observation Ethylene production decreased and stopped when seed dry weight gain was completed.
- Association Early ethylene production rose in parallel with ACC synthase activity.
- Association Early ethylene production rose in parallel with ACC content.
- Observation ACC synthase activity decreased later in development.
- Observation MACC accumulated early, before ACC and ethylene rose.
- Observation MACC content was nearly unchanged in the middle period.
- Observation MACC content decreased late in seed development.
- Intervention effect Exogenous MACC did not promote ethylene production in late-stage seeds.
- Intervention effect Aminoethoxyvinylglycine strongly inhibited ethylene production in late-stage seeds.
- Mechanism The authors infer that declining MACC was not caused by reuse for ethylene production.
