Auxin and plant growth
Auxin intro….
• Auxins are a class of plant hormones.
• Auxin is present in all parts of a plant,
although in very different concentrations.
• On the molecular level, all auxins are
compounds with an aromatic ring and a
carboxylic acid group.
• The most important member of the auxin
family is indole-3-acetic acid (IAA).
Discovery of auxin
• Charles Darwin (1880)
• Peter Boysen-Jensen (1930)
• PAAL (1919)
• Frits Went (1926)
Role of auxin in plant growth
• Organization of the plant
• As auxins contribute to organ shaping.
• They are also fundamentally required for
proper development of the plant itself.
• The sum of auxin arriving from stems to roots
influences the degree of root growth.
• Wound response
• Auxin induces the formation and organization
of phloem and xylem.
• When the plant is wounded, the auxin may
induce the cell differentiation and regeneration
of the vascular tissues.
• Root growth and development
• Auxins promote root initiation.
• As more native auxin is transported down the
stem to the roots, the overall development of
the roots is stimulated.
• However, high concentrations of auxin inhibit
root elongation.
• Apical dominance
• Auxin induces shoot apical dominance.
• The axillary buds are inhibited by auxin,
• High concentration of auxin directly
stimulates ethylene synthesis in axillary buds.
• causing inhibition of their growth and
potentiation of apical dominance.
• Fruit growth and development
• Auxin is required for fruit growth and
development.
• delays fruit senescence.
• Exogenous auxin stimulates the growth in
fruits with seeds removed.
• Flowering
• Auxin plays also a minor role in the initiation
of flowering and development of reproductive
organs.
• In low concentrations, it can delay
the senescence of flowers.
• Auxins in seeds regulate specific protein
synthesis.
