The seed of peach fruits develop the capacity to produce ethylene with a lag phase of about 1 h after excision. The site of ethylene synthesis is in the seed coat and rates as high as 6,000 μl kg(-1) h(-1) were recorded. Ethylene production was reduced to less than 1% of the control by 10 μg/ml cycloheximide. Although the tissue had only a small methionine pool, supplying the seed with exogenous methionine did not influence ethylene production at any stage of seed development. Label from [U-(14)C]methionine was readily incorporated into ethylene.
桃果实的种子在切除后约 1 小时会出现产生乙烯的能力，并经历一个滞后期。乙烯合成的部位是在种皮，记录到的速率高达 6000 μl kg(-1) h(-1)。10 μg/ml 的环己酰亚胺可将乙烯的产生降低至对照的 1%以下。尽管组织中的蛋氨酸池很小，但在种子发育的任何阶段，向种子供应外源蛋氨酸都不会影响乙烯的产生。[U-(14)C]蛋氨酸的标记很容易掺入到乙烯中。
