Abstract
Daylily flowers (Hemerocallis hybrid, cv. Stella d'Oro) senesce and die autonomously over a 24 h period after opening. Investigations were performed to determine some of the mechanisms that lead to death of the petals. The flowers are insensitive to ethylene, but exogenous ABA prematurely upregulates events that occur during natural senescence, such as loss of differential membrane permeability, increases in lipid peroxidation and the induction of proteinase and RNase activities. Furthermore, the same patterns of proteinase and RNase activities appearing on activity gels during natural senescence are induced prematurely by ABA. The mRNA profile from ABA-treated, prematurely senescing petals visualized by differential display shows a high degree of similarity to the mRNA profile of naturally senescing petals 18 h later. In addition, endogenous ABA increases before flower opening and continues to increase during petal senescence. An osmotic stress by sorbitol increases endogenous levels of ABA and upregulates the same parameters of senescence as those occurring during natural senescence and after application of ABA. The mRNA profile from sorbitol-treated, prematurely senescing petals shows a high degree of similarity to mRNA from naturally senescing petals, but somewhat less similarity to mRNA from ABA-treated petals. The possibility is discussed that ABA is a constituent of the signal transduction chain leading to programmed cell death of daylily petals.
