Fig. 5.
Ethylene production and expression of PhATG8 homologues in the petals of pollinated flowers held in the presence of 1-MCP. Detached flowers were pollinated and held in air or continuous 1-MCP (2 µl l–1). Ethylene production (A) in air-treated flowers (open circles) and 1-MCP-treated flowers (filled squares) and relative expression levels for PhATG8 homologues (B) were determined from 0 to 4 d for air-treated flowers and from 0 to 10 d for 1-MCP-treated flowers. Each bar represents the mean±SE from three different samples.
