A Study of Growth of Several Plant Species as Influenced By the Plant Growth Regulator Ethephon
Ethephon was applied to seeds, seedlings or cuttings by soaking or drenching the plant material for varying lengths of time in a range of dilutions of exogenous ethylene to determine its effects on growth. Species studied were Vitis Labrusca L., Carya Illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K.Koch, Kniphofia x …

Intensive management of barley in Saskatchewan
… above soil test recommendations, two levels of ethephon (0 and 0.24 kg ha-1) and two levels of propiconazole (0 and 0.125 kg ha-1). Varieties used in ICM tests were Bonanza, Samson, Leduc, Virden, Johnston and Heartland. The second experiment, comprised of nine tests, compared two PGRs (ethephon …

Nutritional and PGR effects on lipid unsaturation, osmoregulant content, and relation to bermudagrass cold hardiness
… of seaweed extract (SWE) (0.54 kg ha-1), ethephon (16 L ha-1), Fe (1 kg ha-1), and N (49 kg ha-1) took place every three weeks during the fall of 2001 and 2002. Cultivars examined included 'Riviera', 'Midiron', 'Princess', and 'Tifway'. Tifway exhibited greatest fall color retention in …

PCR-based cloning, characterization, and stress-induced expression of chitinase genes in Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.)
… stresses such as cold, heat, salicylic acid and ethephon all induced an increased accumulation of chitinase MRNA in Kentucky bluegrass leaves with ethephon leading to the highest induction. After ethephon treatment, the accumulation of chitinase transcripts at a high level was observed from 2 …

Analysis of the Expression Profiles of Two Isoforms of the Antifungal Protein Osmotin from Gossypium hirsutum
… were induced 2 to 4 h after treatment with ethephon. The osmotin mRNA levels appear to increase 12 h after treatment, decrease, and then increase again. The osmotin protein expression patterns were analyzed in Western blot analyses using an anti-osmotin antibody preparation. A 24-KDa protein …

An investigation into sustainable strawberry production using alternative growing systems
… light (red, dark, and white) temperatures and Ethephon on seed germination was observed for Temptation and Florian seeds. The statistical analysis revealed that light has no difference in seed germination in Temptation and Florian strawberry seeds. The temperature and ethephon treatment did not …

Propagation, height control, and flowering of Hypoestes phyllostachya
… concentrations of ancymidol, chlormequat, ethephon, paclobutrazol, and uniconazole to inhibit shoot growth and internode elongation of H. phyllostachya were determined and found to be similar for both seed- and cutting-propagated plants. Daminozide, even at 6000 mg-liter- 1 , was …

Intensive spring nitrogen management of winter barley: silage and grain yield and composition
… in a 3-yr study. The use of a growth regulator, ethephon, was also investigated. Nitrogen application at a rate of 135 kg/ha increased forage yields in 1984 and tended to increase yields in 1985 and 1986 though dry conditions existed. Crude protein yield was increased with application of 135 kg …

Effect of canopy manipulation and fermentation on grape aroma components
… influence of shoot topping to 10 or 20 nodes or ethephon application on grape aroma components was measured for three seasons. Canopy modification by both topping levels and ethephon treatment increased sunlight penetration into the canopy fruiting zone. Free volatile terpenes (FVT) were …
