Gibberellic acid (GA) induced extension of green pea-stem sectionsin light only if an auxin was also present. Of the auxins tested3-indolylacetic acid, 2-methyl-4-chloro-phenoxyacetic acid,2: 4-dichloro-phenoxyacetic acid and I-naphthylacetic acid wereeffective in increasing extension of sections and in elicit-inga response to GA. Excised internodes from plants pre-treatedwith GA extended appreciably faster in vitro than those fromuntreated plants only if an auxin was supplied in the incubationmedium. This and other evidence suggests that in the intactplant GA elicits a growth-response only in the presence of auxin.By comparing growth-rates of excised internodes in vitro andof intact internodes in vivo under comparable conditions, usinguntreated plants and plants pre-treated with GA, evidence hasbeen obtained that in untreated plants growth-rate is somehowlimited to a level below that made potentially possible by theendogenous auxin supply; treatment with GA appears to releasethe plant from this state of inhibition. Growth of intact peainternodes is considered to be regulated by a three-factor system,consisting of auxin, an inhibitory system, and a hormone withphysiological properties similar to those of GA.  相似文献

As sessile organisms, plants have evolved great plasticity to adapt to their surrounding environment. Temperature signals regulate the timing of multiple developmental processes and have dramatic effects on plant architecture and biomass. The modulation of plant architecture by temperature is of increasing relevance with regard to crop productivity and global climate change. Unlike many other organisms, the mechanisms through which plants sense changes in ambient temperature remain elusive. Multiple studies have identified crosstalk between ambient temperature sensing, light signaling, cold acclimation and pathogen response pathways. The regulation of plant architecture by temperature appears to involve the complex integration of multiple hormone signaling networks. Gibberellin (GA), Salicylic Acid (SA) and cytokinin have been implicated in the regulation of plant growth during chilling, whilst a predominant role for auxin is observed at high temperatures. This mini-review summarizes current knowledge of plant growth regulation by temperature and crosstalk with other abiotic and biotic stress signaling pathways.Key words: temperature, architecture, elongation, growth, hormone, auxin, gibberellin, salicylic acid, biomass  相似文献

Epicotyl segments cut from azuki bean (Vigna angularis) seedlings grown at 27 C for 5 days and then treated at 15 C for 2 days were compared with those cut from seedlings not receiving the 15-C treatment, for their response to auxin and auxin plus gibberellin. The segments cut from 15C-treated seedlings showed greater elongation than the segments cut from untreated seedlings both in the absence and in the presence of gibberellin. The 15-C treatment increased the elongation caused by auxin plus gibberellin to a greater extent than it did the elongation caused by auxin alone; the gibberellin response of epicotyl was increased by the treatment. Diffusates from leaves and buds inhibited both the elongation caused by auxin and that caused by auxin plus gibberellin. The diffusates inhibited the latter more strongly than the former; the gibberellin response was decreased by the diffusates. Leaves or buds appear to supply epicotyls with a substance which decreases the gibberellin response. The supply of this substance was found to be temperature dependent. The diffusates obtained at 15 C caused no inhibition, while those obtained at 27 C decreased the gibberellin response. The lack of the supply of this substance at 15 C may account for the increase in the gibberellin response by the 15-C treatment.  相似文献

Exogenous gibberellin (GA) and auxin (indoleacetic acid [IAA]) strongly stimulated stem elongation in dwarf GA1-deficient le mutants of light-grown pea (Pisum sativum L.): IAA elicited a sharp increase in growth rate after 20 min followed by a slow decline; the GA response had a longer lag (3 h) and growth increased gradually with time. These responses were additive. The effect of GA was mainly in internodes less than 25% expanded, whereas that of IAA was in the older, elongating internodes. IAA stimulated growth by cell extension; GA stimulated growth by an increase in cell length and cell number. Dwarf lkb GA-response-mutant plants elongated poorly in response to GA (accounted for by an increase in cell number) but were very responsive to IAA. GA produced a substantial elongation in lkb plants only in the presence of IAA. Because lkb plants contain low levels of IAA, growth suppression in dwarf lkb mutants seems to be due to a deficiency in endogenous auxin. GA may enhance the auxin induction of cell elongation but cannot promote elongation in the absence of auxin. The effect of GA may, in part, be mediated by auxin. Auxin and GA control separate processes that together contribute to stem elongation. A deficiency in either leads to a dwarfed phenotype.  相似文献

In the sequential response to plant growth regulators in young elongating tissue from peas and wheat the peak of sensitivity to 24-epi-brussinolide (1 μM) occurs after those of gibberellin and cytokinin and begins before that of auxin in isolated wheat ( Triticum vulgare L. ev. Egret) coleoptiles aged from 21-96 h. In dwarf pea ( Pisum sativum L. cv. Greenfeast) segments, the peak of sensitivity also lies between those of gibberellin and auxin, and it also occurs before sensitivity to auxin in sections from first leaves of wheat. All the leaf sections and all but the most mature coleoptiles and pea segments were sensitive to fusicocein (1 μM).  相似文献

Recently it was discovered that auxin promotes gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis in decapitated stems of pea (Pisum sativum L.) and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), and here we review the evidence for this interaction. We also discuss the possible relationship between auxin and the mechanisms by which bioactive GAs (such as GA1) regulate their own levels, and the implications of the auxin-GA interaction for the control of plant growth. It is now possible to envisage auxin as a messenger linking the apical bud with the biosynthesis of active GAs in the expanding internodes. Finally, new evidence is presented that the promotion of growth by GA1 does not depend on GA1-induced increases in auxin content.  相似文献

Many aspects of plant development are regulated by antagonistic interactions between the plant hormones auxin and cytokinin, but the molecular mechanisms of this interaction are not understood. To test whether cytokinin controls plant development through inhibiting an early step in the auxin response pathway, we compared the effects of cytokinin with those of the dgt (diageotropica) mutation, which is known to block rapid auxin reactions of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) hypocotyls. Long-term cytokinin treatment of wild-type seedlings phenocopied morphological traits of dgt plants such as stunting of root and shoot growth, reduced elongation of internodes, reduced apical dominance, and reduced leaf size and complexity. Cytokinin treatment also inhibited rapid auxin responses in hypocotyl segments: auxin-stimulated elongation, H(+) secretion, and ethylene synthesis were all inhibited by cytokinin in wild-type hypocotyl segments, and thus mimicked the impaired auxin responsiveness found in dgt hypocotyls. However, cytokinin failed to inhibit auxin-induced LeSAUR gene expression, an auxin response that is affected by the dgt mutation. In addition, cytokinin treatment inhibited the auxin induction of only one of two 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase genes that exhibited impaired auxin inducibility in dgt hypocotyls. Thus, cytokinin inhibited a subset of the auxin responses impaired in dgt hypocotyls, suggesting that cytokinin blocks at least one branch of the DGT-dependent auxin response pathway.  相似文献

A hierarchical scheme for the central role of the plant hormones auxin and gibberellins in fruit set and development has been established for the model plants Arabidopsis and tomato. In the fruit crop Capsicum annuum, the importance of auxin as an early signal in fruit set has also been recognized; however, the effect of gibberellins and their interaction with auxin has not yet been studied. The aim of this study was to determine the role of gibberellin and the hierarchy between auxin and gibberellin. We applied gibberellin alone or in combination with auxin or with the gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitor paclobutrazol on stigmas of emasculated flowers. Gibberellin application enhanced fruit set, whereas application of paclobutrazol reduced fruit set. The effect of paclobutrazol treatment could be counteracted by coapplication of gibberellin but not by auxin. These results indicate that in C. annuum, like in Arabidopsis and tomato, auxin is the major inducer of fruit set that acts in part by inducing gibberellin biosynthesis. Interestingly, gibberellin does not significantly contribute to the final fruit size but seems to play an important role in preventing flower and fruit abscission, a major determinant of production loss in C. annuum. At the same time, gibberellin together with auxin seems to balance cell division and cell expansion during fruit growth.  相似文献

A study of transport and action of synthetic auxin analogues can help to identify transporters and receptors of this plant hormone. Both aspects--transportability and action on growth--were tested with 2-naphthoxyacetic acid (2-NOA) and compared across several plant species. 2-NOA stimulates elongation effectively at low concentrations in petioles of the gymnosperm Ginkgo biloba L., in hypocotyls or internodes of the dicot legumes, mung bean (Vigna mungo L.) and pea (Pisum sativum L.), in cotyledons of onion (Allium cepa L.) and in leaf bases of chive (Allium schoenoprasum L.), the latter two of the monocot order Asparagales. In contrast, elongation of coleoptile segments of maize (Zea mays L.) is poorly responsive to 2-NOA. Significant auxin-like transport of 2-NOA was observed in segments of mung bean hypocotyls, pea internodes, and chive leaf bases, but not in segments of the grass coleoptiles. Thus, for the two assays, elongation and polar transportability, the same difference in ligand specificity was observed between the grass and all other species assayed. This finding supports the hypothesis that a common protein mediates auxin efflux as well as auxin action on elongation.  相似文献

Hormonal changes accompanying the cold stress (4°C) response that are related to the level of frost tolerance (FT; measured as LT50) and the content of the most abundant dehydrin, WCS120, were compared in the leaves and crowns of the winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cv. Samanta and the spring wheat cv. Sandra. The characteristic feature of the alarm phase (1 day) response was a rapid elevation of abscisic acid (ABA) and an increase of protective proteins (dehydrin WCS120). This response was faster and stronger in winter wheat, where it coincided with the downregulation of bioactive cytokinins and auxin as well as enhanced deactivation of gibberellins, indicating rapid suppression of growth. Next, the ethylene precursor aminocyclopropane carboxylic acid was quickly upregulated. After 3-7 days of cold exposure, plant adaptation to the low temperature was correlated with a decrease in ABA and elevation of growth-promoting hormones (cytokinins, auxin and gibberellins). The content of other stress hormones, i.e., salicylic acid and jasmonic acid, also began to increase. After prolonged cold exposure (21 days), a resistance phase occurred. The winter cultivar exhibited substantially enhanced FT, which was associated with a decline in bioactive cytokinins and auxin. The inability of the spring cultivar to further increase its FT was correlated with maintenance of a relatively higher cytokinin and auxin content, which was achieved during the acclimation period.  相似文献

The reorganization of the cellulose-xyloglucan matrix is proposed to serve as an important mechanism in the control of strength and extensibility of the plant primary cell wall. One of the key enzymes associated with xyloglucan metabolism is xyloglucan endotransglycosylase (XET), which catalyzes the endocleavage and religation of xyloglucan molecules. As with other plant species, XETs are encoded by a gene family in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum cv T5). In a previous study, we demonstrated that the tomato XET gene LeEXT was abundantly expressed in the rapidly expanding region of the etiolated hypocotyl and was induced to higher levels by auxin. Here, we report the identification of a new tomato XET gene, LeXET2, that shows a different spatial expression and diametrically opposite pattern of auxin regulation from LeEXT. LeXET2 was expressed more abundantly in the mature nonelongating regions of the hypocotyl, and its mRNA abundance decreased dramatically following auxin treatment of etiolated hypocotyl segments. Analysis of the effect of several plant hormones on LeXET2 expression revealed that the inhibition of LeXET2 mRNA accumulation also occurred with cytokinin treatment. LeXET2 mRNA levels increased significantly in hypocotyl segments treated with gibberellin, but this increase could be prevented by adding auxin or cytokinin to the incubation media. Recombinant LeXET2 protein obtained by heterologous expression in Pichia pastoris exhibited greater XET activity against xyloglucan from tomato than that from three other species. The opposite patterns of expression and differential auxin regulation of LeXET2 and LeEXT suggest that they encode XETs with distinct roles during plant growth and development.  相似文献

Detailed examination of the hyponastic curvature of the primary bean leaf blade in response to indoleacetic acid (IAA) shows that curvature begins within 15 min after application and increases to a maximal rate at 20 to 30 min. A second application of IAA results in a second curvature maximum when applied 1.5 hr or more after the first. Washing experiments indicate IAA uptake is largely complete by about 20 min after application, suggesting the return to planar form is accompanied by the uptake and passage of a wave of IAA through the responding cells. The rate of curvature decreases as the temperature is lowered, particularly below 14 C; at low concentrations (10–4 m) the rate of response to 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxypropionic acid is slower than that for IAA and naphthaleneacetic acid. These differences are proposed to reflect the involvement of the polar auxin transport system in the response. The leaves of bean seedlings exposed to 4 C develop hyponastic curvatures when returned to normal growth temperature; 5 min treatment is sufficient to induce this response, and with longer treatments, greater curvatures are obtained. This curvature is inhibited by application of 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) to the undersurface of the leaf at the beginning of the cold treatment. The results are consistent with a model of planar plageotropic growth regulation in the leaf blade in which auxin produced by cells in the upper portion of the blade is transported by the polar transport system through cells in the lower portion that are growth limited by auxin supply. The hyponastic and epinastic effects caused by exogenous application of auxin or TIBA and of cold treatments are considered to result from changes in this auxin supply.  相似文献

Soybean suspension cultures were grown for 24 weeks in the absence of plant growth regulators and in the presence of 1 ppm levels each of an auxin (indole-3-butyric acid), a cytokinin (kinetin) and a gibberellin (gibberellic acid), individually and in all possible combinations. Cells grown in the presence of the auxin with and without gibberellin contained relatively greater amounts of palmitic and smaller amounts of polyunsaturated acids than did cells grown under other regimens. The combination of cytokinin and gibberellin caused a higher proportion of linoleic and a lower proportion of linolenic acids than in cells of the other groups. Neither of these regulators by itself produced the effect, and addition of auxin to the other two diminished the effect.  相似文献

The morphological effects of gibberellin A3 (GA3) on the dgtmutant of tomato were investigated. The mutant effectively showedthe normal range of responses, including a promotion of stemlength due to an increased number of longer internodes, a dramaticincrease in apical dominance, and effects on leaf shape andcolour. In the case of stem elongation, the quantitative responseof the mutant was greater than normal. The morphological abnormalitiescharacteristic of the dgt mutant, such as horizontal growth,a thin stem and hyponastic leaves, were not normalized by GA3. It is concluded that the demonstrated lack of response to auxinof the dgt mutant does not impair its gibberellin responses. Tomato, gibberellin, auxin, mutant, shoot development  相似文献

Plant hormones play a key role as mediators between environmental signals and adaptive plant responses. Auxin, ethylene and gibberellins are involved in the initiation of adaptive plant responses such as the development of adventitious roots and stimulated shoot elongation upon flooded conditions. These adaptive plastic responses in plants are frequently linked to changes in the concentrations of the hormones involved, but only rarely to shifts in sensitivity. Examples from ecophysiological research performed with species from the genusRumex demonstrate the importance of the hormone sensitivity concept in plant adaptations to flooding: (a)Rumex species can be grouped into three response categories according to the ethylene sensitivity of the youngest petioles: positive, negative and indifferent; (b) Sub-ambient oxygen concentrations sensitize petioles of wetlandRumex species to ethylene; (c) Enhanced ethylene levels sensitize petioles of wetlandRumex species to gibberellin; (d) Auxin is the primary plant hormone responsible for the initiation of adventitious roots in wetlandRumex species. However, a factor related to waterlogging, possibly ethylene, is required to sensitize the root-shoot junction to endogenous auxin.  相似文献

THE RELATIONSHIP OF GIBBERELLIN AND AUXIN IN PLANT GROWTH   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
No synergism was found between IAA and gibberellin in the Avenucurvature test and this bioassay thus measures changes in diffusibleauxin resulting from gibberellin treatment and not a synergisticaction of the gibberellin on the curvature response to auxin.Gibberellin treatment causes an increase in diffusible auxinfrom the stem apex of dwarf pea (Pisum sativum L. var. LittleMarvel) 24 to 48 hours before the elongation response in thestem. The increase in diffusible auxin in the stem apex of Centaureacyanus L. var. Blue Boy occurs four to six days before the boltingresponse to gibberellin treatment under short days. The stemtissues of both the dwarf pea and Centaurea show an elongationresponse to IAA when the IAA is applied in a manner simulatingthe stem apex. Thus the growth of the dwarf pea and the boltingof Centaurea brought about by treatment with gibberellin aredependent on an increase in diffusible auxin. 1Present address: Biological Institute, College of General Education,University of Tokyo, Komaba, Meguro, Tokyo.  相似文献

Corolla elongation and the roles of plant hormones in this process in Gaillardia grandiflora Van Houtte ray flowers were examined. The sterile ray flowers elongated during a 2-day period, and corolla growth was accompanied by fresh and dry weight increases and epidermal cell elongation (greatest near the base of the corolla) but not by cell division. Corollas excised from young ray flowers were measured during treatment in vitro with solutions of plant growth regulators. They elongated in response to gibberellins and fusicoccin but did not respond to auxins, cytokinins, abscisic acid, ethylene, or inhibitors of ethylene biosynthesis. Sequential and simultaneous hormone applications indicated no additive or synergistic effects between hormones, but auxin did reduce gibberellin-promoted growth. Analyses of endogenous auxins showed no significant variation, and ethylene production decreased prior to elongation, while a 20-fold increase in endogenous gibberellin activity was observed just prior to rapid corolla elongation. It appears that corolla growth in Gaillardia is accomplished by an increase in gibberellin activity alone, that multiple hormone interactions are not important in the control of corolla growth, and that part of the mode of action of gibberellin is acid-induced growth.  相似文献

The objective of this investigation was to examine the response to exogenous auxin (indole-3-acetic acid; IAA)of stem segments at two developmental stages. The standard auxin response of excised stem segments and intact plants consists of an initial growth response and a prolonged growth response. We found that this biphasic response does not occur in internodes at very early stages. Stem segments of light grown pea of various genotypes were cut when the fourth internode was at 6–13% of full expansion (early-expansion) or at 18–25% of full expansion (mid-expansion). Length measurements of excised segments were made after 48 hours of incubation on buffer with or without auxin. An angular position transducer linked to a computerized data collection system provided high-resolution measurement of growth of stacks of segments incubated in buffer over 20 hours. Early-expansion segments of all genotypes deviated from the standard auxin response, while mid-expansion segments responded in a manner consistent with previous reports. Early-expansion segments of tall, light-grown plants were unique in showing an auxin-induced inhibition of growth. The auxin-induced inhibition correlated with high endogenous auxin content, as determined by HPLC and GC/MS, across genotypes and between early-expansion and mid-expansion segments of tall plants. Measurement of ethylene evolved from stem segments in response to auxin, and treatment of segments with the ethylene action inhibitor, norbornadiene, showed the inhibition to be mediated in part by heightened ethylene sensitivity. Growth of early-expansion segments of dwarf and severe dwarf plants was stimulated by exogenous auxin, but the growth rate increase was delayed compared to that in mid-expansion segments. This is the first time that such a growth response, termed the delayed growth response has been emonstrated. It is concluded that developmental stage and endogenous hormone content affect tissue response to exogenous auxin.  相似文献
