Effect of Ethylene on Auxin Transport

F B Abeles 1
PMCID: PMC1086456  PMID: 5990936

Abstract

Ethylene was found to have no influence on auxin transport in hypocotyls of Helianthus annuus and Phaseolus vulgaris; coleoptiles of Zea mays; petiole sections of Gossypium hirsutum, Phaseolus vulgaris, and Coleus blumei. In the experiments described here, the tissues were treated with ethylene only during the 3 hours of polar transport. This short treatment is in contrast to the methods of others who found an effect of ethylene on auxin transport when plants grown in ethylene are used as experimental tissues.
