Changes In Endogenous Hormone Levels During The Ripening Of Grape Cultivars Having Different Berry Set Mechanisms, Ni̇lgün Göktürk Baydar, Ni̇hat Harmankaya
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Concentrations of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), gibberellic acid (GA_3) and abscisic acid (ABA) were measured by gas chromatography (GC) in the berries of 3 grape cultivars having different berry set mechanisms to elucidate the possible relationship between endogenous hormones and berry set mechanisms. The results obtained showed that the levels of IAA, GA_3 and ABA in seeded Italia, empty seeded Çavuş and stenospermocarpic seedless Perlette changed during ripening. While Italia exhibited a hormonal pattern similar to that of Çavuş, Perlette showed a different IAA and ABA pattern compared to the other cultivars. Generally, IAA and GA_3 were high in the early …
