Figure 6.

Schematic illustration of a proposed model for the control of adventitious root formation in cucumber. IAA is synthesized in the apical bud and basipetally transported to the base of the hypocotyl. There, IAA triggers a transient NO accumulation, which activates a cGMP-dependent pathway leading to adventitious root formation. Blue arrow, IAA transport, inhibition.
