Ethylene is a naturally occurring wound hormone that causes leaf yellowing, leaf drop, bud drop, and reduced flower life. Ethylene gas is given off by dying, decaying, and dead fruits and vegetables. Also, plants and flowers produce ethylene internally as they age and when plants have undergone mechanical damage, such as vibration during shipping, drought, and heat stress. Damage to plants and flowers may be caused by ethylene in the atmosphere and from ethylene produced within the plant.&nbsp; In severe situations, plants may not be marketable unless plants are treated with anti-ethylene products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Aglaonema-with-and-without-ethylene-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19262\" style=\"width:381px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Aglaonema-with-and-without-ethylene-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Aglaonema-with-and-without-ethylene-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Aglaonema-with-and-without-ethylene-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Aglaonema-with-and-without-ethylene-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Aglaonema-with-and-without-ethylene.jpg 1666w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You can protect your plants and flowers from eth<\/strong><strong>ylene<\/strong>. Today, several products are available from Floralife and Chrysal to prevent ethylene damage if plants are treated prior to storage, shipping, and commercial display. These products will protect plants from atmospheric ethylene and ethylene produced within the plant.&nbsp; AFE has funded many studies on damage from ethylene and treatments to prevent damage. You can read more on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/archived.endowment.org\/new-research-offers-cost-effective-solutions-ethylene-problems\/\">Cost-Effective Solutions for Ethylene Problems here<\/a>&nbsp;and take a look at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/archived.endowment.org\/afe-floriculture-and-horticulture-research-reports\/\">AFE\u2019s other final research reports here<\/a>.
