(a) Effects of exogenous IAA-Ala, IAA-Ile, and IAA-Asp on the abscission rate of tomato pedicel explants: (filled diamond) control (CK); (filled square) 30 mM IAA-Ala treatment; (filled circle) 30 mM IAA-Ile treatment; (filled triangle) 30 mM IAA-Asp treatment. b Flower pedicels were pre-incubated in MS medium and then incubated in IAA-Ile at different times for abscission analysis: (filled diamond) control (CK); (filled square) incubated in IAA-Ile agar at 0 h; (filled triangle) 1 h; (filled circle) 2 h; (empty square) 4 h; (empty triangle) 6 h; (empty circle) 8 h. c Flower pedicels were pre-incubated in IAA-Ile for different times and then transferred to MS medium for abscission analysis: (filled diamond) control (CK); (filled square) incubated in 30 mM IAA-Ile agar for 0.5 h; (filled triangle) 1 h; (filled circle) 2 h; (empty square) 4 h; (empty triangle) 6 h; (empty circle) 8 h. d Flower pedicels were pre-incubated in MS and then incubated in IAA-Ile with cycloheximide (CHX) at different times for abscission analysis: (filled diamond) control (CK); (filled square) incubated in 30 mM IAA-Ile with CHX agar at 0 h; (filled triangle) incubated in 30 mM IAA-Ile with CHX agar at 1 h; (empty square) 2 h; (empty triangle) 4 h. All results are the means of three replicates (60 flowers each) ± SE
