113 Ethylene Mediates Responses of `Gala' Apple Fruit to Ionizing Irradiation

Xuetong Fan; David Buchanan; Luiz Argenta; et al. HortScience 2000. doi:10.21273/hortsci.35.3.408c

Other claims from this paper (9)

Intervention effect MCP reduced respiration in Gala apple fruit.
Intervention effect MCP reduced ethylene production in Gala apple fruit.
Intervention effect MCP slowed loss of apple fruit firmness and titratable acidity.
Intervention effect Irradiation increased respiration of MCP-treated apple fruit with dose.
Intervention effect Irradiation stimulated ethylene production of MCP-treated apple fruit for one day.
Intervention effect Irradiation induced internal browning in apple fruit.
Association Apple fruit irradiation injury severity increased with dose.
Intervention effect Irradiation damage severity and incidence were higher in MCP-treated apple fruit than controls.
Mechanism The authors infer that ethylene mediates apple fruit responses to irradiation.

Exploring Within-tree Architectural Development of Two Apple Tree Cultivars Over 6 Years

E. COSTES Annals of Botany 2002. doi:10.1093/aob/mcg010

Other claims from this paper (9)

Observation Within-tree morphological gradients were confirmed.
Mechanism The growth decrease resulted from fewer metamers per growth unit, modeled exponentially.
Association Declining growth involved changes in axillary shoot number and nature.
Observation Spur death probability was constant across years.
Association Spur death probability differed by cultivar and bearing shoot type.
Observation Braeburn flowering and fruiting probabilities were predictable within trees.
Observation Fuji had alternating bearing behavior that was harder to predict.
Mechanism Fuji alternation appeared linked to synchronized increase in floral growth units.
Mechanism Fuji alternation appeared linked to high fruit-set probability.
