PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Ethylene causes ripening of fruits. Auxin is responsible for the growth of shoots. It is responsible for the formation of fruits. Cytokinins stimulate cell division in plants to promote growth.

Detailed explanation-2: -This increase in ethylene concentration triggers an increase in the fruit’s metabolism and causes the changes to the fruit that occur during ripening. Ripening of climacteric fruits can, therefore, be slowed down by reducing the amount of ethylene the fruits make or by blocking ethylene’s actions [5].

Detailed explanation-3: -In climacteric fruit, the plant hormone ethylene is the major cue that controls most aspects of ripening. By contrast, the ripening of nonclimacteric fruit does not strictly depend on ethylene, and the nature of the triggers of ripening in this type of fruit remains yet to be elucidated.

Detailed explanation-4: -Abscisic acid (ABA) and ethylene are the major regulators of ripening and senescence in both dry and fleshy fruits, as demonstrated by numerous ripening-defective mutants, effects of exogenous hormone application, and transcriptome analyses.
