Biochemical and Physiological Aspects of Ethylene Production in Lower and Higher Plants Proceedings of a Conference held at the Limburgs Universitair Centrum, Diepenbeek, Belgium, 22–27 August 1988

With the demonstration of the "triple response" in plants by Neljubow at the turn of the century, ethylene has been identified as a substance specifically affecting plant growth. Yet it took a few more decades to show that ethylene is a naturally occurring product of plants having all the...
