additional information
potential of 2-aminooxyisobutyric acid as a preservative for carnations and other ornamentals, in which ethylene plays a key role in the induction of senescence, by inhibition of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase. 2-aminooxyisobutyric acid at 1 mM causes 91.5% reduction of maximum ethylene production rate as compared to the control in cut Excerea carnation flowers undergoing senescence, thereby lengthening their vase life to 7 d from 3 d of the control flowers. The compound also extends significantly the vase life of cut flowers of Pax carnation, and tends to do so in Primero Mango carnation. Suppression of flower senescence, overview
