Popis: Background The plant hormone ethylene exerts a huge influence in the whole life cycle of plants, especially stress-resistance responses. With the development of functional genomics, that the action mechanism of ethylene takes part in mediated plant architecture has been clarified gradually, such as plant roots, stems, leaves, fiber elongation and so on. Accordingly, the application of ethylene on crops chemical control and genetic improvement is greatly expanded. From the view of ethylene mediated plant architecture in crops, here reviewed advances in ethylene biosynthesis and signal transduction pathway, stress-resistance responses and the yield potential enhance of crops in recently 20 years. On these grounds, the objectives of this paper were to provide scientific reference and a useful clue for the crop creation of ideal plant type.
