Ethylene is a plant hormone that causes fruits to ripen. Unripened fruits can rot, so if ethylene caused fruit to rot, it should ripen them first. The cause of rotting fruit is most likely due to microorganisms, especially bacteria.
Ethylene accelerates ripening of the fruit.
Ethylene gas, a natural by-product of bananas and other fruits, is what accelerates the ripening process of fruit. The riper a fruit is the more gas is emitted. Once green bananas arrive at their destination, they are placed in rooms and exposed to commercial ethylene for this purpose. A method to accelerate the ripening of other fruits, such as tomatoes, is to place them in a container with a fully ripened banana. The ethylene gas that the banana gives off will help ripen the tomato.
They give off ethylene gas which will ripen other fruit. Ethylene gas is also used in greenhouse to artificially ripen fruit commercially.
Seeds develops into fruits and the ripening stage has many enzymes aiding the process. The hard, green,sour , mealy fruits ripen by the action of enzymes such as pectinases, amylases and ethylene oxide. The role of amylase is to convert the starch ( which imaparts a mealyness to unripe fruits) to glucose and hence impart sweetness.

Ethylene contain hydrogen and carbon.
ripens fruit
It's a plant hormone called ethylene gas. Ethylene gas causes fruit to ripen. The more ethylene gas in an area, the faster the fruit ripens
You are probably referring to ethylene and not ethanol. Fruits produce more ethylene as they age.

Every plant is sensitive to ethylene gas. Ethylene is emitted when damage is done to a plant. It stimulates repair or ripening so that reproduction can take place before it's too late. Bananas are an example of this ripening effect. Put green bananas beside ripe ones and the ethylene ripens the green bananas faster than they would have ripened on the other side of the room. Ethylene ripens all fruit, tomatoes, pears etc. The same is true of flowers.
ethylene
Frequently is used the ethylene oxide.
Ethylene
Ethylene causes the ripening process, which also causes the color change.
Ripening fruit generates Ethylene gas. If this gas is trapped around a ripening fruit in sealed bag or container it accelerates the ripening process.
In Latin, apricot means "precious," a label earned because it ripens earlier than other summer fruits
Ethylene is formed in small amounts as a plant hormone. The biosynthesis of ethylene involves an enzyme-catalyzed decomposition of a novel amino acid, and, once formed, ethylene stimulates the ripening of fruits.
