Novel inhibitors of ethylene production in higher plants

N. Amrhein and D. Wenker

Arbeitsgruppe Hormonphysiologie der Pflanzen, Lehrstuhl für Pflanzenphysiologie, Ruhr-Universität D-4630 Bochum, Fed. Rep. Germany

Of a number of O-substituted hydroxylamine derivatives, N-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-a-aminooxy-propionic acid and {alpha}-aminooxyacetic acid inhibited ethylene production by etiolated mung bean hypocotyls by 50% at 3 and 6 µm concentrations, respectively. Their potency is thus similar to that of aminoethoxyvinylglycine (50% inhibition at 2 µM), the most potent inhibitor of ethylene production hitherto known. Methionine partially alleviated inhibition of ethylene production by a-aminooxy-acetic acid. The results are in agreement with the postulated involvement of pyridoxal phosphate in ethylene biosynthesis.
