Ethylene Biosynthesis and Its Involvement in Senescence of Broccoli Florets.

Involvement of chloroplast peroxidase on chlorophyll degradation in postharvest broccoli 1 florets and its control

Hot air treatment delays senescence and maintains quality of fresh-cut broccoli florets during refrigerated storage

A postharvest treatment with hot air (48 C during 3 h) was applied to fresh-cut broccoli to investigate its effect on quality and senescence during storage at 0 C. The treatment delayed yellowing as evidenced by lower decrease of Hue values during storage. After 21 days of storage, treated broccoli had chlorophyll content approximately 40% higher than controls. The treatment did not affect eith...

Ethylene and flower longevity in Alstroemeria: relationship between tepal senescence, abscission and ethylene biosynthesis.

Senescence of floral organs is broadly divided into two groups: those that exhibit sensitivity to exogenous ethylene and those that do not. Endogenous ethylene production from the former group is via a well-characterized biochemical pathway and is either due to developmental or pollination-induced senescence. Many flowers from the order Liliales are characterized as ethylene-insensitive since t...

Exogenously induced expression of ethylene biosynthesis, ethylene perception, phospholipase D, and Rboh-oxidase genes in broccoli seedlings

In higher plants, copper ions, hydrogen peroxide, and cycloheximide have been recognized as very effective inducers of the transcriptional activity of genes encoding the enzymes of the ethylene biosynthesis pathway. In this report, the transcriptional patterns of genes encoding the 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthases (ACSs), 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidases (ACOs), ETR1, ETR2,...

the survey of the virtual higher education in iran and the ways of its development and improvement

این پژوهش با هدف "بررسی وضعیت موجود آموزش عالی مجازی در ایران و راههای توسعه و ارتقای آن " و با روش توصیفی-تحلیلی و پیمایشی صورت پذیرفته است. بررسی اسنادو مدارک موجود در زمینه آموزش مجازی نشان داد تعداد دانشجویان و مقاطع تحصیلی و رشته محل های دوره های الکترونیکی چندان مطلوب نبوده و از نظر کیفی نیز وضعیت شاخص خدمات آموزشی اساتید و وضعیت شبکه اینترنت در محیط آموزش مجازی نامطلوب است.
