    Notes: Abstract At concentrations inhibitory to the elongation of corn (Zea mays L.) roots, the auxins, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and α-naphthaleneacetic acid (α-NAA), cause an increase in the pH of the bathing medium; this increase occurs with an average latent period shorter than the latent period for the inhibitory effect of these auxins on elongation. Indole-2-carboxylic acid, an inactive structural analogue of IAA, and β-naphthaleneacetic acid, an inactive analogue of α-NAA, affect neither growth nor the pH of the medium. Since acid pH is known to promote and basic pH to inhibit root elongation, the data are consistent with the hypothesis that hormone-induced modification of cell-wall pH plays a role in the control of elongation of roots, as has been proposed for elongation of stems and coleoptiles.

    Notes: Abstract Using an auxanometer and time-lapse cinematography we have studied the timing of abscisic acid (ABA) effects on elongation, gravitropic curvature, and hydrogen-ion efflux in several cultivars of maize (Zea mays L.). The effect of high concentrations (e.g. 0.1 mM) of ABA on root elongation is triphasic, including 1) a period of promotion lasting approximately 12 h, 2) a subsequent period of increasing inhibition lasting approximately 12h, and 3) gradual recovery to a rate within approximately 80% of the control rate. With lower concentrations of ABA (e.g. 0.1 μM) only the transient promotive phase is seen. Abscisic acid enhances ethylene biosynthesis in roots of maize but suppression of ethylene biosynthesis does not prevent the long-term inhibitory action of ABA on growth. Application of ABA (0.1 mM) to the upper surface of horizontally placed roots accelerates positive gravitropism. Application of ABA to the lower surface retards gravitropism and in some cases causes the roots to curve upward against the direction of gravity. These observations are consistent with our finding that the initial effect of ABA on root elongation is stimulatory. Since root gravitropism is rapid enough to be completed within the stimulatory phase of ABA action, the data argue against hypotheses of gravitropism based upon accumulation of ABA to inhibitory levels on the lower side of a hirizontal root.
