Differential ABA sensitivity of superior and inferior rice grains is linked to cell cycle entry into endoreduplication Open
Suboptimal grain filling in rice ( Oryza sativa ) inferior spikelets poses a constraint to maximizing the yield potential. The differential grain filling between superior and inferior spikelets has been primarily attributed to differences …

Postharvest jasmonic acid and methyl jasmonate dip treatments alleviate chilling injury and maintain quality of cold‐stored ‘<span>Black Amber</span>’ and ‘<span>Tegan Blue</span>’ Japanese plums (<i>Prunus salicina</i><span>Lindell</span>) Open
BACKGROUND Chilling injury (CI) in Japanese plums ( Prunus salicina Lindell) is a critical cold storage constraint that adversely impacts fruit quality and marketability. Jasmonic acid (JA) and its methyl derivative ‘methyl jasmonate’ (MeJ…

Jasmonic Acid Activates the Fruit-Pedicel Abscission Zone of ‘Thompson Seedless’ Grapes, Especially with Co-Application of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic Acid Open
Two studies were conducted to determine how methyl jasmonate (MeJA), jasmonic acid (JA), and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) affect grape berry abscission in the initial days after treatment. The overarching goal was to determi…

Impacts of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic Acid as a Late Post-Bloom Thinner on Fruit Set, Yield, and Fruit Quality in “Gala” and “Fuji” Apples Open
A few post-bloom thinners are available for apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and the prospects for additional thinners appear to be limited. Application of blossom thinners may present a risk of overthining in the areas where weather is less…

Effect of Notching, 6-Benzyladenine, and 6-Benzyladenine plus Gibberellin A4 + A7 on Budbreak and Shoot Development from Paradormant Buds on the Leader of Young Apple Trees Open
Notching is a technique to stimulate shoot growth from paradormant buds with the long-term objective of increasing the cropping potential of fruit trees by developing new fruiting scaffolds. Notching is not commonly practiced by apple ( Ma…
