Summary

Low levels of exogenous ethylene induced earlier and more sever chilling injury in all species. The concentrations of endogenous putrescine, squalene and alpha-farnesene varied between species and was affected by the time of exposure to 0 deg C and the presence of ethylene. The patterns of change indicate that loss of squalene coupled with loss of alpha-farnesene could be involved in induction of chilling injury.
