Ethylene in plant growth.
Ethylene inhibits cell division, DNA synthesis, and growth in the meristems of roots, shoots, and axillary buds, without influencing RNA synthesis. Apical dominance often is broken when ethylene is removed, apparently because the gas inhibits polar auxin transport irreversibly, thereby reducing the shoot's auxin content just as if the apex had been removed. A similar mechanism may underly ethyl...
متن کاملCobalt and plant development: interactions with ethylene in hypocotyl growth.
Co(2+) promoted elongation of hypocotyl segments of light-grown cucumber (Cucumis sativus) seedlings. Time course and dose response data are presented and interactions with IAA, gibberellin, cyclohexanol, and cotyledons described. Segments without cotyledons responded to Co(2+) only if grown in gas-tight vessels with IAA added. When bases of cotyledons were ringed with an inhibitor of auxin tra...
متن کاملA native plant growth promoting bacterium, Bacillus sp. B55, rescues growth performance of an ethylene-insensitive plant genotype in nature
Many plants have intimate relationships with soil microbes, which improve the plant's growth and fitness through a variety of mechanisms. Bacillus sp. isolates are natural root-associated bacteria, isolated from Nicotiana attenuata plant roots growing in native soils. A particular isolate B55, was found to have dramatic plant growth promotion (PGP) effects on wild type (WT) and transgenic plant...
متن کاملPromotion of Plant Growth by Soil Bacteria That Regulate Plant Ethylene Levels
One of the central the mechanisms used by many soil bacteria to directly promote plant growth is the production of the enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase. This enzyme facilitates plant growth as a consequence of the fact that it sequesters and cleaves plantproduced ACC (the immediate precursor of ethylene in plants), thereby lowering the level of ethylene in the plant. In ...
متن کاملEthylene Role in Plant Growth, Development and Senescence: Interaction with Other Phytohormones
The complex juvenile/maturity transition during a plant's life cycle includes growth, reproduction, and senescence of its fundamental organs: leaves, flowers, and fruits. Growth and senescence of leaves, flowers, and fruits involve several genetic networks where the phytohormone ethylene plays a key role, together with other hormones, integrating different signals and allowing the onset of cond...
