The movement of petals during flower opening (anthesis) and their separation from the parent plant during abscission requires cell wall modification at the junction (abscission zone) of the petal and thalamus. The present study shows differential ethylene mediated temporal regulation of various members of the rose XTH gene family during flower opening and abscission in the ethylene sensitive, early abscising fragrant rose and the less sensitive late abscising hybrid rose. These studies indicate that large scale changes in xyloglucan crosslinking in cell wall mediated by XTHs may facilitate movement and separation during flower opening and abscission respectively.
