Ethylene is a plant hormone
synthesized from the amino acid, methionine, a member of the aspartate
family of amino acids. Ethylene is involved in fruit
ripening, abscission, senescence, epinasty, dormancy, leaf expansion,
flower induction, hypertrophy, and other physiological responses and may
play a role in defense against pests and pathogens.
