Characterization of Carbon Dioxide Stress-Induced Ethylene Biosynthesis in Cucumber {Cucumis sativus L.) Fruit

Mathooko, Francis M.; Inaba, Akitsugu; Nakamura, Reinosuke (JSPP, 1998)

In the present study, we have investigated the mechanism through which carbon dioxide induces ethylene biosynthesis in cucumber {Cucumis sativus L.) fruit. A series of inhibitors were tested in order to determine the ...
Expression Characteristics of CS-ACS1, CS-ACS2 and CS-ACS3, Three Members of the 1-AminocycIopropane-l-Carboxylate Synthase Gene Family in Cucumber {Cucumis sativus L.) Fruit under Carbon Dioxide Stress

Mathooko, Francis M.; Mwaniki, Mercy W.; Nakatsuka, Akira; Shiomi, Shinjiro; Kubo, Yasutaka; Inaba, Akitsugu; Nakamura, Reinosuke (Oxford University Press, 1999)

We investigated the expression pattern of three 1-aminocydopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) synthase genes, CS-ACS1, CS-ACS2 and CS-ACS3 in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit under CO2 stress. CO2 stress-induced ethylene ...
