- Intervention effect Low auxin concentrations stimulated lentil root growth.
- Intervention effect Low auxin concentrations reduced ethylene production in lentil root tips.
- Intervention effect High auxin levels inhibited lentil root growth.
- Intervention effect A rhizobitoxine analogue increased lentil root growth.

- Intervention effect Combined auxin and rhizobitoxine analogue application reduced ethylene evolution despite inhibited root growth.
- Intervention effect Combined auxin and rhizobitoxine analogue application inhibited lentil root growth.
- Mechanism The authors infer that auxin-controlled lentil root growth does not depend on ethylene production.
