Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation between cell enlargement in pea internode segments and decrease in the pH of the medium of incubation: I. Effects of fusicoccin, natural and synthetic auxins and mannitol
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that the growth-promoting activity of IAA and FC is mediated by the capacity of these compounds to induce a decrease of pH in the cell wall and thus an increase of its plastic extensibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for the coupling of proton extrusion to K+ uptake in pea internode segments treated in fusicoccin or auxin
TL;DR: A satisfactory correlation between the stimulatory effect on proton extrusion and that on K + uptake appears to exist even in the very first phase of treatment with FC, provided the segments are preincubated in buffers at pH 5.5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transmembrane potential increase induced by auxin, benzyladenine and fusicoccin. Correlation with proton extrusion and cell enlargement
TL;DR: The results reported herein show that the proton extrusion effect of these growth-promoting agents, in pea internode segments as well as in squash cotyledons, is accompanied by a significant increase of the negative transmembrane potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of a brassinosteroid on growth and electrogenic proton extrusion in Azuki bean epicotyls
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of brassinosteroid on acid secretion and transmembrane electrical potential difference in Azuki bean (Vigna angularis, Ohwi and Takara) epicotyls were determined in short term experiments and compared with the effects on growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation between proton extrusion and stimulation of cell enlargement effects of fusicoccin and of cytokinins on leaf fragments and isolated cotyledons
TL;DR: Fusicoccin, a diterpene glucoside, is shown to induce in isolated cotyledons from germinating squash and radish seeds, an effect on cell enlargement markedly greater than that of benzyladenine and kinetin.
