Concentrations of IAA Metabolites in IAA-Overproducing Arabidopsis Mutant Lines.
Free IAA, the catabolite oxIAA, and the conjugates IAA-Asp and IAA-Glu were quantified in root tissues from 10-DAG wild-type Arabidopsis
Col-0 and IAA-overproducing lines (35S:YUC1, sur1-3, and sur2-1).
(A) Logarithmic concentration (pmol g−1 fresh weight) of IAA, oxIAA, IAA-Asp, and IAA-Glu in Arabidopsis
Col-0 (black bars) and the mutant lines 35S:YUC1, sur1-3, and sur2-1 (dark to light gray bars, respectively). Error bars indicate sd (n = 3). Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences in the mutant lines (35S:YUC1, sur1-3, and sur2-1) versus the wild type (Col-0) in an ANOVA analysis (one, two, and three asterisks correspond to 0.05 > P > 0.01, 0.01 > P > 0.001, and P < 0.001, respectively). FW, Fresh weight.
(B) Logarithmic ratio between the concentration of IAA metabolites and free IAA (diamonds, oxIAA/IAA; squares, IAA-Asp/IAA; triangles, IAA-Glu/IAA) in the different Arabidopsis lines.
