Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Fluridone-treated primary roots grew significantly slower than untreated roots.
- Intervention effect Low ABA doses had no or slight stimulatory effect on root elongation, depending on application.
- Observation ABA absence was not important for secondary roots before 9-10 days.
- Intervention effect At day 11 controls had significantly fewer secondary roots than Fluridone-treated seedlings.
- Observation Fluridone-treated and control seedling roots responded to gravity.
- Observation vp-9 mutants gave similar results to Fluridone-treated seedlings.
- Mechanism ABA may suppress secondary-root formation in older seedlings.
