Morphology of a 12-day-old etiolated maize seedling (Zea mays, wild type), and effect of brassinolide (BL) on mesocotyl growth. Seeds of wild type (wt) plants and a maize brassinosteroid-deficient mutant (brd 1-m1) were germinated and grown in darkness on MS-medium in the absence or presence (±) of brassinolide (BL, 1 μM). Representative 12-d-old plant (a) and quantitative data documenting the role of brassinosteroids in the regulation of mesocotyl growth in etiolated maize seedlings (n=6) (b) (original photograph, a; data adapted from Makarevitch et al. 2012; b)
