Article Synopsis
- Natural rubber (NR) is a key cash crop, and ethylene (ET) is identified as the most effective stimulant for increasing NR yield, although the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood.
- Research involving latex properties, transcriptome analysis, and metabolic profiling revealed that sucrose and inorganic phosphate levels rise with ET stimulation, positively affecting dry-rubber yield.
- The study found significant gene expression changes and identified key genes and metabolites linked to amino-acid biosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolism, enhancing our understanding of ethylene's role in rubber biosynthesis.
