Nitric oxide (NO) is known to antagonize ethylene by various mechanisms; one of such mechanisms is reducing ethylene levels by competitive action on S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)&#8212;a common precursor for both ethylene and polyamines (PAs) biosynthesis. In order to investigate whether this me...
