Description
Wenqiu Lin and co-authors traced how a spray forces pineapple plants to flower in a 2023 study. Growers spray ethephon, which sheds ethylene gas, to make a whole field bloom at once for a timed harvest. The gene and chemistry shifts that the gas sets off inside the plant tip were not well mapped.
The team read both the gene activity and the small-molecule mix in shoot tips across the days after spraying. Samples ran from day zero to the first bud parts. Joined maps show which genes wake and which pathways shift as the tip turns to bloom. The map may help breeders time or boost flowering.
