Abstract: | Omission of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from batchcultures of sycamore produced an immediate reduction in ratesof cell division and eventually in rates of biomass accumulation.The sequential responses of a chemostat and of turbidostat culturessubjected to gradual withdrawal of 2,4-P were: (i) a transientincrease in biomass accumulation, (ii) increased accumulationof p-coumaric acid, flavonoids, and lignin, (iii) increasedcell aggregation, (iv) reduced rates of cell division, and (v)death. During stepwise reduction of 2,4-D supplied to turbidostatcultures, rates of 2,4-D uptake were reduced when the spentmedium concentration fell to 3?51?0 ? 107 M. Underthese conditions the 2,4-D concentration in soluble and insolublecell fractions declined. The growth responses were correlatedwith the spent-medium 2,4-D concentration but not with its concentrationin the intracellular fractions. |
