  1. Gibberellins: Regulators of Plant Height and Seed Germination • GA levels in plants are correlated with stem length. • Play role in seed germination, transition to flowering, and pollen development.

  2. Figure 20.1 Effect of exogenous GA1 on wild-type and dwarf mutant maize

  3. Figure 20.2 Cabbage can be induced to bolt and flower by applications of GA3

  4. Figure 20.3 Gibberellins induce conebud formation in juvenile conifers

  5. Figure 20.4 Gibberellin induces growth in “Thompson Seedless” grapes

  6. Ch. 20 In-Text Art, pp. 585–586 Gibberellin structures

  20. Figure 20.20 Integration of light and GA signaling in Arabidopsis seedlings

  21. Figure 20.17 Opposite effects of two different mutations in the same SLN1 repressor gene • GA signals the degradation of negative regulators, e.g. the degradation of DELLA proteins. • Sln1c loss-of-function. Mutated in GRAS domain; unable to repress GA responsive genes even in the absence of GA. • Sln1d gain-of-function. Mutation in DELLA domain prevents the repressor protein from being degraded.

  23. Figure 23.3 Precocious germination in the ABA-deficient vivipary 14 mutant of maize • Ratio of GA:ABA affects early germination (vivipary). With high levels of ABA, seeds remain dormant.
