CmACO transcript and protein expression in chrysanthemum cutting bases during adventitious root formation. (a), CmACO protein expression in the cutting bases of chrysanthemum were detected by Western blotting using antiACO-monoclonal antibody; (b), CmACO transcript was analyzed by qRT-PCR. Each value represents the mean of three independent replicates ± SE. (c), ethylene production during adventitious root formation in chrysanthemum cutting bases. Each value represents the mean of three independent replicates ± SE; (d), morphological changes during adventitious root formation and AgNO₃ inhibits adventitious root formation.
