Abstract
Ethephon moves down the petiole into the direction of the abscission zone.
Using peticle segments it was shown that movement is partly due to the presence of a waterfilm layer around the petiole.
Translocation of 14C-ethylene could not be observed.
The ethephon-induced petiole abscission appeared to be highly age-dependent.
