INTRODUCTION

Ethylene is one of the five classic plant hormones, having profound effects at all stages of plant growth and development from seed germination to tissue senescence. Tremendous strides have been made in our understanding of the molecular components of the ethylene signal transduction pathway through the identification of mutants having altered responses to ethylene. These mutants were isolated by screening for seedlings with an altered triple-response phenotype, which is manifested upon exposure to high levels of ethylene in the dark. The triple response consists of the formation of a pronounced apical hook, along with a shortening and thickening of both . . . [Full Text of this Article]
