Title
Light-Enhanced Protein Synthesis in Gravitropically Stimulated Root Caps of Corn
Lewis J. Feldman PLANT PHYSIOLOGY 1983. doi:10.1104/pp.72.3.833
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Light increased protein synthesis in Merit corn root caps to 1.3–1.6 times dark controls.
- Intervention effect Light enhanced protein levels in intact corn root caps.
- Intervention effect Light enhanced protein levels in cultured corn root caps.
- Intervention effect After illuminated caps returned to darkness, protein levels declined to dark control levels within 2 hours.
- Mechanism The authors propose that light-stimulated protein synthesis partly mediates downward root bending in corn.
