  • Title: Effect of asymmetric auxin application on Helianthus hypocotyl curvature.
    Author: Migliaccio F, Rayle DL.
    Journal: Plant Physiol; 1989; 91(2):466-8. PubMed ID: 11537460.
    Abstract:
    Indole-3-acetic acid was applied asymmetrically to the hypocotyls of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seedlings. After 5 hours on a clinostat, auxin gradients as small as 1 to 1.3 produced substantial (more than 60 degrees) hypocotyl curvature. This result suggests the asymmetric growth underlying hypocotyl gravitropism can be explained by lateral auxin redistribution.
