Timing of the Auxin Response in Coleoptiles and Its Implications Regarding Auxin Action
The timing of the auxin response was followed in oat and corn coleoptile tissue by a sensitive optical method in which the elongation of about a dozen coleoptile segments was recorded automatically. The response possesses a latent period of about 10 min at 23 degrees C, which is extended by low concentrations of KCN or by reducing the temperature, but is not extended by pretreatments with actin...
متن کاملInhibition of auxin-induced cell elongation of maize coleoptiles by antibodies specific for cell wall glucanases.
Polyclonal antibodies were raised in rabbits in response to the administration of purified exo- and endoglucanases extracted from cell walls of maize (Zea mays L. B37 x Mo17) coleoptiles. Since the antibodies formed specific conjugates when challenged with the glucanase antigens in immunoblot assays they were employed to evaluate the participation of glucanases in tissue growth. Indole-3-acetic...
متن کاملCan lateral redistribution of auxin account for phototropism of maize coleoptiles?
Elongation growth of intact, red-light grown maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptiles was studied by applying a small spot of an indole acetic acid (IAA)-lanolin mixture to the coleoptile tip. We report that: (a) endogenous auxin is limiting for growth, (b) an approximately linear relation holds between auxin concentration and growth rate over a range which spans those rates occurring in phototropism, a...
متن کاملCell wall development in maize coleoptiles.
The physical bases for enhancement of growth rates induced by auxin involve changes in cell wall structure. Changes in the chemical composition of the primary walls during maize (Zea mays L. cv WF9 x Bear 38) coleoptile development were examined to provide a framework to study the nature of auxin action. This report documents that the primary walls of maize cells vary markedly depending on deve...
متن کاملGrowth, Auxin, and Tropisms in Decapitated Avena Coleoptiles.
With all the work on auxin appearing in the last years it is remarkable that not more investigations are concerned with the actual role of the auxins inside the plant. Barring some early opposition, the original statement "Without auxin no growth" (12) has stood unchallenged for many years. Probably this was so because all test methods were based on the principle of proportionality between auxi...
