    Notes: Abstract There is evidence that the cap is the initial site of lateral auxin redistribution during the gravitropic response of roots. We tested this further by comparing asymmetric auxin redistribution across the tips of gravistimulated intact roots, decapped roots, isolated root caps and isolated apical sections taken from decapped roots. Gravistimulation caused asymmetric (downward) auxin movement across the tips of intact roots and isolated root caps but not across the tips of decapped roots or across isolated apical root segments. Naphthylphthalamic acid and pyrenoylbenzoic acid, inhibitors of polar auxin transport, inhibited asymmetric auxin redistribution across gravistimulated isolated root caps and across the tips of gravistimulated intact roots. For intact roots there was a positive correlation between the extent of inhibition of assymmetric auxin redistribution by polar auxin transport inhibitors and the extent of inhibition of asymmetric calcium chelating agent, ethylene glycol-bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid, also caused parallel inhibition of asymmetric auxin redistribution and gravitropic curvature and this effect was reversed by subsequent treatment with calcium. The results support the hypothesis that the cap is a site of early development of auxin asymmetry in gravistimulated roots and that calcium plays an important role in the development of lateral auxin redistribution.

    Effect of calmodulin antagonists on the growth and graviresponsiveness of primary roots of maize (1992)

    Notes: Abstract We examined the effect of calmodulin (CaM) antagonists applied at the root tip on root growth, gravity-induced root curvature, and the movement of calcium across the root tip and auxin (IAA) across the elongation zone of gravistimulated roots. All of the CaM antagonists used in these studies delayed gravity-induced curvature at a concentration (1 μM) that did not affect root growth. Calmodulin antagonists (≧ 1μM) inhibited downward transport of label from 45Ca2+ across the caps of gravistimulated roots relative to the downward transport of 45Ca2+ in gravistimulated roots which were not treated with CaM antagonists. Application of CaM antagonists at the root tip (≧ 1μM) also decreased the relative downward movement of label from 3H-IAA applied to the upper side of the elongation zone of gravistimulated roots. In general, tip application of antagonists inhibited neither the upward transport of 45Ca2+ in the root tip nor the upward movement of label from 3H-IAA in the elongation zone of gravistimulated roots. Thus, roots treated with CaM antagonists (≧ 1 μM) become less graviresponsive and exhibit reduced or even a reversal of downward polarity of calcium transport across the root tip and IAA transport across the elongation zone. The results indicate that calmodulin-regulated events play a role in root gravitropism.

    Patterns of auxin and abscisic acid movement in the tips of gravistimulated primary roots of maize (1996)

    Notes: Abstract Because both abscisic acid (ABA) and auxin (IAA) have been suggested as possible chemical mediators of differential growth during root gravitropism, we compared with redistribution of label from applied 3H-IAA and 3H-ABA during maize root gravitropism and examined the relative basipetal movement of 3H-IAA and 3H-ABA applied to the caps of vertical roots. Lateral movement of 3H-ABA across the tips of vertical roots was non-polar and about 2-fold greater than lateral movement of 3H-IAA (also non-polar). The greater movement of ABA was not due to enhanced uptake since the uptake of 3H-IAA was greater than that of 3H-ABA. Basipetal movement of label from 3H-IAA or 3H-ABA applied to the root cap was determined by measuring radioactivity in successive 1 mm sections behind the tip 90 minutes after application. ABA remained largely in the first mm (point of application) whereas IAA was concentrated in the region 2–4 mm from the tip with substantial levels found 7–8 mm from the tip. Pretreatment with inhibitors of polar auxin transport decreased both gravicurvature and the basipetal movement of IAA. When roots were placed horizontally, the movement of 3H-IAA from top to bottom across the cap was enhanced relative to movement from bottom to top whereas the pattern of movement of label from 3H-ABA was unaffected. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that IAA plays a role in root gravitropism but contrary to the idea that gravi-induced asymmetric distribution of ABA contributes to the response.
