Ethylene and Indole-3-Acetic Acid Participate in the In-Rolling and Opening of Carnation Petal Segments

We have examined the inward-rolling and outward-opening of petals from 90° stage carnation flowers (Dianthus charyophyllus L. cv. Pink Donor). Ethylene released from 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (CEPA) induced in-rolling in the lower portions of the petals while that action was suppressed by an inhi...

Zusammenfassung:We have examined the inward-rolling and outward-opening of petals from 90° stage carnation flowers (Dianthus charyophyllus L. cv. Pink Donor). Ethylene released from 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (CEPA) induced in-rolling in the lower portions of the petals while that action was suppressed by an inhibitor of auxin transport. Another plant hormone, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), intensified this ethylene-induced in-rolling. In contrast, when ethylene was not applied, the same IAA concentration promoted the opening of petal segments.
