Growth regulators Auxins Cytokinins Gibberellins Abscisic acid Ethylene Brassinosteroids Strigolactones All are small organics: made in one part, affect another part
Auxin First studied by Darwins! Showed that a "transmissible influence" made at tips caused bending lower down No tip, no curve!
Auxin 1919: Paal showed that if tip was replaced asymmetrically, plant grew asymmetrically even in dark Uneven amounts of "transmissible influence" makes bend 1926: Went showed that a chemical that diffused from tips into blocks caused growth If placed asymmetrically get bending due to asymmetrical growth Amount of bending depends on [auxin] 1934: Indole-3-Acetic acid (IAA) from the urine of pregnant women was shown to cause bending
Auxin 1934: Indole-3-Acetic acid (IAA) from the urine of pregnant women was shown to cause bending IAA is the mainauxinin vivo. Others include Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), 4-Chloroindole-3-acetic acid and phenylacetic acid (PA) IAA IBA PA 4-CI-IAA
Auxin IAA is the main auxin in vivo. Many synthetic auxins have been identified No obvious structural similarity, yet all work! IAA
Auxin >90%of IAA is conjugated to sugars in vivo! Inactive, but readily activated! Best way to measure [auxin] is bioassay!
Auxin >90%of IAA is conjugated to sugars in vivo! Inactive, but readily activated! Best way to measure [auxin] is bioassay! Critical concentration varies between tissues Roots are much more sensitive than leaves!
Chemiosmotic Auxin Transport • Apoplastic IAAH diffuses into cell • IAAH due to low pH • AUX1 pumps in IAA- 2. In cell IAAH-> IAA- due to pH 7.2, draws more IAAH 3. IAA- is pumped out by PIN proteins in basal part of cell 4. In apoplast IAA- -> IAAH due to low pH Cycle repeats
Chemiosmotic Auxin Transport Supporting evidence • Some chemicals specifically block import or export • Both mess up development! 2.AUX1 encodes an IAA-H+ symporter found at top of cell aux1 resemble plants treated with import blockers
