Botanical Terms – Abscission
The rejection of plant parts, such as fall leaves. Cell adhesion is decreased at an abscission zone by *hydrolytic *enzymes. The ratio and gradients of *auxin and *ethene in nature regulate the process, which can be accelerated by *abscisic acid and inhibited by respiratory toxins. There might be more *hormones at play.
