Endogenous auxin and ethylene in pellia (bryophyta).
نویسندگان
چکیده
The occurrence of endogenous indole-3-acetic acid and ethylene in bryophyte tissue was tentatively demonstrated using gas chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography, and double-standard isotope dilution techniques. Rapidly elongating stalks (or setae) of Pellia epiphylla (L.) Corda sporophytes contain approximately 2.5 to 2.9 micrograms per gram fresh weight of putative free IAA. Ethylene released by setae increases during growth from 0.027 to 0.035 nanoliter per seta per hour. Application of 5 microliters per liter ethylene inhibits auxin-stimulated elongation growth of this tissue, a result which suggests that both endogenously produced compounds act in tandem as natural growth modulators.

An Ethylene-Mediated Increase in Sensitivity to Auxin Induces Adventitious Root Formation in Flooded Rumex palustris Sm.
The hormonal regulation of adventitious root formation induced by flooding of the root system was investigated in the wetland species Rumex palustris Sm. Adventitious root development at the base of the shoot is an important adaptation to flooded conditions and takes place soon after the onset of flooding. Decreases in either endogenous auxin or ethylene concentrations induced by application of...
متن کاملModelling and experimental analysis of hormonal crosstalk in Arabidopsis
An important question in plant biology is how genes influence the crosstalk between hormones to regulate growth. In this study, we model POLARIS (PLS) gene function and crosstalk between auxin, ethylene and cytokinin in Arabidopsis. Experimental evidence suggests that PLS acts on or close to the ethylene receptor ETR1, and a mathematical model describing possible PLS-ethylene pathway interactio...
متن کاملAuxin regulation of axial growth in bryophyte sporophytes: its potential significance for the evolution of early land plants.
To identify developmental mechanisms that might have been involved in the evolution of axial sporophytes in early land plants, we examined the effects of auxin-regulatory compounds in the sporophytes of the hornwort Phaeoceros personii, the liverwort Pellia epiphylla, and the moss Polytrichum ohioense, members of the three divisions of extant bryophytes. The altered growth of isolated young spo...
متن کاملThe Role of Auxin-Ethylene Crosstalk in Orchestrating Primary Root Elongation in Sugar Beet
It is well-established in Arabidopsis and other species that ethylene inhibits root elongation through the action of auxin. In sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) ethylene promotes root elongation in a concentration dependent manner. However, the crosstalk between ethylene and auxin remains unknown during sugar beet seedling development. Our experiments have shown that exogenously applied auxin (indo...
متن کاملA Mutation Altering Auxin Homeostasis and Plant Morphology in Arabidopsis.
Many aspects of plant development are associated with changing concentrations of the phytohormone auxin. Several stages of root formation exhibit extreme sensitivities to exogenous auxin and are correlated with shifts in endogenous auxin concentration. In an effort to elucidate mechanisms regulating development of adventitious roots, an ethyl methanesulfonate-mutagenized M2 population of Arabid...
