Ethylene production by young shoots

Strains Ethylene Production
mg kg−1 h−1 fresh wt
Wild type 0.11 ± 0.04
Transgenic plants expressing full-length CGS 0.15 ± 0.08
Transgenic plants expressing truncated CGS 4.35 ± 0.46

Ethylene production by shoots (about 10 cm high) regenerated from transgenic and wild-type plants after 3 weeks of growth in soil. The average ± SE of five different shoots is shown.
