This review focuses mainly on eudicot seeds, and on the interactions between abscisic acid
(ABA), gibberellins (GA), ethylene, brassinosteroids (BR), auxin and cytokinins in regulating …

The intracellular level of a protein is dependent on both its rate of synthesis and its rate of
degradation. Thus, differential regulation of protein stability represents a potential …

The role of ethylene in the release of primary and secondary dormancy and the germination
of non‐dormant seeds under normal and stressed conditions is considered. In many …

Increased ethylene evolution accompanies seed germination of many species including
Pisum sativum L., but only a little is known about the regulation of the ethylene biosynthetic …

Proteases catalyze the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in proteins/peptides inside or outside of
cells. They play important roles in development and responses to environmental stresses. In …

To identify genes specifically expressed during early stages of actinorhizal nodule
development, a cDNA library made from poly (A) RNA from root nodules of Alnus glutinosa …

The past decade has witnessed a tremendous increase in our understanding of the role of
ethylene in plant development. Genes encoding enzymes of the ethylene biosynthesis …

To investigate ethylene's role in petal senescence, a comparative analysis of age-related
changes in total protein, protease activity, and the expression of nine cysteine protease …

The terminal process of xylogenesis, autolysis, is essential for the formation of a tubular
system for conduction of water and solutes throughout the whole plant. Several hydrolase …

The senescence of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) flower petals is regulated by the
phytohormone ethylene and is associated with considerable catabolic activity including the …
