Abstract in brief

  • Ethylene is a key plant hormone that affects various stages of plant growth, development, and how plants respond to stress.
  • It plays an important role in processes like fruit ripening, which is crucial for agriculture.
  • Understanding the ethylene signaling pathway can help improve agricultural practices by potentially enhancing crop production and stress resistance.]

Apparently, this even applies to organic "tropical" fruit. Added concerns: - Are apples considered tropical fruit? - It isn't applied to just apples. - Recipes that call for orange, lemon, or lime zest.
