Apple trees, like many perennial plants, endure a prolonged juvenile stage before reaching maturity, during which they ...

THOUGH work on the influence of gibberellin on flowering of plants has been given much attention, up to now very little is known, about the relation of gibberellin to sex differentiation of plants.

So far, all published results relating to the gibberellin content of plants, or plant organs, have been obtained by various gibberellin-extraction techniques. This procedure is useful in the ...

The study also focused on genes within the gibberellin (GA) pathway, noting significant regulatory patterns, particularly with GA2ox genes showing substantial downregulation, suggesting a pivotal ...

Currently, they are investigating the biosynthesis, subcellular localization, and biological role of this novel class of phosphoinositides. In addition, the involvement of phosphoinositides in ...

One method of making fruit grow without seeds inside is to spray the flower with hormones such as auxin or gibberellin. This is called parthenocarpic fruit development. Dormancy stops seeds ...

Nov. 11, 2024 — A new study on titan arum -- commonly known as the corpse flower for its smell like rotting flesh -- uncovers fundamental genetic pathways and biological mechanisms that produce ...

Gibberellins are used in the production of seedless fruit such as seedless grapes, which are normally sprayed with gibberellin to increase the size of each grape. Ethene speeds up the ripening of ...
