The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Postharvest Biology and Technology of Cut Flowers and Potted Plants (2012, background): “In many flowers, an increase in ethylene production, often triggered by pollination (Pech et al. 1987; Stead 1992; van Doorn and Stead 1994; Hunter et al. 2002) clearly initiates the senescence cascade.”
Ethylene Role in Plant Growth, Development and Senescence: Interaction with Other Phytohormones (2017, background): “The life of flowers is genetically determined due to their role in sexual reproduction and fertilization, and the maintenance of floral structure has a considerable cost in terms of respiratory energy, nutrients, and water loss (Stead, 1992; Jones et al., 2009).”
Ethylene (2006, background): “In other species such as Pelargonium and Digitalis, petals abscise quickly in response to pollination (Stead, 1992; van Doorn and Stead, 1997; Clark et al., 1997).”
