Characterization of Auxin Receptors and Auxin-Ethylene Interaction During Pea Fruit Development
DownloadSpring 2017
Normal development of a pea (Pisum sativum L.) fruit requires the presence of seeds within the fruit. Removal of seeds from young pea fruits results in slowing of pericarp (fruit) growth and subsequent abscission. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 4-chloroindole-3-acetic acid (4-Cl-IAA) are two...

Recently, considerable research has been conducted into solid-acid catalyzed carbonylation of dimethyl ether (DME) to methyl acetate (MeOAc), which can be further used for the iodine-free production of ethanol or acetic acid. The zeolite mordenite (H-MOR) is known as a potential catalyst but is...

The steam cracking of hydrocarbons is the dominant technology for ethylene production and is a highly energy intensive process. The increasing demand for ethylene has stimulated substantial research into the development of new process routes to reduce energy consumption and other costs. Catalytic...
