Abstract

Ethylene is one of the plant hormones that controls growth and development. There are many responses regulated via ethylene in response to exogenous stimuli. Research on ethylene biosynthesis and the signalling pathway enabled us to understand the mechanism of the regulation of these responses. Different temporal and spatial expression of genes encoding enzymes involved in ethylene biosynthesis is of great importance for the regulation of ethylene responses. Also, post-translational regulation of the enzymes seems to be a key regulatory mechanism for the control of their activity. Because of versatile regulation of its production, ethylene can control plant development at many levels.
