Abstract:The abscission of fruits has a significant impact on yield, which in turn has a corresponding effect on economic benefits. In order to better understand the molecular mechanism of early coconut fruit abscission, the morphological and structural characteristics, cell wall hydrolysis and oxidase activities, phytohormones, and transcriptomes were analyzed in the abscission zone (AZ) from early-abscised coconut fruits (AFs) and non-abscised coconut fruits (CFs). These results indicated that the weight and water co… Show more
