Modes of Ethylene Action in the Release of Amylase from Barley Aleurone Layers 1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The development of xylanase activity by isolated barley (Hordeum vulgare cv. Himalaya) aleurone layers exposed to gibberellic acid was enhanced by ethylene, whereas the rate of glucanase synthesis was unaffected by ethylene. The elevated xylanase activity expressed in ethylene-treated tissue may be responsible for enhanced release of amylase in response to ethylene.
