Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Exposure of plants to ethylene can influence a spectrum of developmental processes including organ senescence and abscission. The aim of this study was to examine the role of the gaseous regulator in Nicotiana sylvestris plants exhibiting a silenced or constitutive ethylene response. METHODS: Transgenic N. sylvestris plants were generated that either ectopically expressed the Arabidopsis...
