Construction of an RNAi vector for knockdown of GM-ACS genes in the cotyledonary nodes of soybean

Background: Ethylene plays an important role in the regulation of floral organ development in soybean, and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase (ACS) is a rate-limiting enzyme for ethylene biosynthesis. However, whether ACS also regulates floral organ differentiation in soybean remains unknown. To ...

The effects of ethylene on the HCl-extractability of trace elements during soybean seed germination

Electron. j. biotechnol; 18 (5), 2015
Background Ethylene is capable of promoting seed germination in some plant species. Mobilization of metals such as Fe, Cu, Mn, and Zn in mature seeds takes place when seeds are germinating. However, whether ethylene is involved in the regulation of soybean seed germination and metal element mobilization ...
