Abstract

The ethylene releaser ethephon is commonly used in rubber tree farming to stimulate latex production (5).

Two main effects of ethylene treatment have been observed:

  • extended latex flow (due to increased water uptake and delayed coagulation phenomena),

  • activation of general metabolism, allowing more efficient regeneration of latex after tapping.
