- Ethylene is a simple hydrocarbon gas produced when a fruit ripens. Ethylene flips the switch to trigger the genes that in turn make the enzymes that cause ripening. Plants send signals all the time using hormones. This ripening signal is unique, though, because it involves an airborne hormone (the ethylene).
