The Effects of Ethylene on The Cold Storage of Pinus resinosa and Pinus banksianna

Description

Pinus resinosa Ait. and Pinus banksiana Lamb. seedlings were stored at 2°C in polyethylene bags and subjected to 0 ppm, 0.05 ppm, 0.1 ppm, 1,0 ppm, and 5 ppm ethylene gas. Seedlings were removed from were remo OM storage after 3, 6, and 9 weeks and grown for 21 days in the greenhouse under 16-hour photoperiods. Root growth capacity and visual foliar damage was assessed. Higher levels of ethylene. enhanced root growth for P. resinosa. P. banksiana had a high mortality rate due possibly to the ethylene as well as the high rate of respiration while in storage.
