Role of cytokinins in carnation flower senescence.
Stem and leaf tissues of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus) plants appear to contain a natural antisenescence factor since removal of most of these tissues from cut carnation flowers hastened their senescence. However, kinetin (5-10 mug/ml) significantly delayed senescence of flowers with stem and leaf tissues removed. In addition, the life span of cut flowers with intact (30-cm) stems was incre...
متن کاملEthylene 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...
متن کاملOxidative Stress Mechanisms during Flower Senescence
Free radicals and other active derivatives of oxygen are inevitable by-products of biological redox reactions and universal under stress situations. Reactive oxygen species inactivate enzymes and damage important cellular processes and subsequently cell components also. Plants and other organisms have evolved a wide range of mechanisms to contend with this problem by promoting the synthesis of ...
متن کاملFlower Petal Cell Walls: Changes Associated with Flower Opening and Senescence*
Flowers are prized as objects of great beauty and diversity, and are commercially valuable (~US$4.5 billion in international trade yearly) and highly perishable. Biologically, flower petals have an important role in the lifecycle of plants, as they protect immature reproductive structures, then provide the attraction and accessibility needed for pollination to occur. Flower petal cell wall cons...
متن کاملPhysiological and biochemical aspects of flower development and senescence in Nicotiana plumbaginifolia Viv
Healthy buds of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia growing in the Kashmir University Botanic Garden were selected for the present study. Flower development and senescence was divided into seven stages, viz., tight bud stage (I), mature bud stage (II), pencil stage (III), partially open stage (IV), open stage (V), partially senescent stage (VI) and senescent stage (VII). Various physiological and biochem...
