Accumulation of [¹⁴C]GA_20, [¹⁴C]GA₂₉, and [¹⁴C]GA₂₉-catabolite in wild-type SLN and sln mutants after 24 h of incubation with [¹⁴C]GA₁₉

Values shown are percentages calculated as (dpm ¹⁴C-metabolite after 24 h of incubation)/(dpm [¹⁴C]GA₁₉ added to tissue) × 100. Values in parentheses are ¹⁴C-metabolite in dpm × 10⁻³ ± se (n = 3 for wild-type SLN and n = 2 for sln). Amount of [¹⁴C]GA₁₉ added per three pods (three pods per extraction) was as follows: all wild-type SLN, 162,525 dpm; SP (sln), 155,954 dpm; 4-Cl-IAA (sln), 111,054 dpm; SPNS (sln), 111,054 dpm.

Seeds were either left intact (SP) or removed (SPNS) from the pericarp, or seeds were removed and 4-Cl-IAA was applied to the pericarp at 12 h after deseeding.

Pericarp growth in length at 48 h after initial pericarp splitting or splitting and seed removal (±se; n = 6–9).
