CHARACTERIZATION AND PHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF VOLATILE TERPENE COMPOUNDS (VTCs) IN POSTHARVEST NEEDLE ABSCISSION OF BALSAM FIR (ABIES BALSAMEA (L.) MILL.)
In the quest to understand the physiological basis of postharvest needle loss in balsam fir, we hypothesized that, volatile terpene compounds (VTCs) have a role in needle abscission. This study focused on understanding the role of VTC’s in postharvest needle abscission. We demonstrated that balsam f...
