Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Removing leaves reduced hypocotyl root formation.
- Intervention effect Apical bud excision was less detrimental to root formation than leaf removal.
- Intervention effect IAA induced more roots when all leaves were present.
- Intervention effect IAA greatly increased sugar accumulation at cutting bases.
- Intervention effect IAA increased basal sugar content concurrently with root formation in green and starved cuttings.
- Intervention effect IAA solution applied to hypocotyls enhanced basipetal transport of labeled assimilates.
- Intervention effect IAA solution applied to hypocotyls enhanced accumulation of labeled assimilates there.
- Association IAA-associated accumulation was linked to greater mobilization of labeled assimilates from upper cutting regions.
- Mechanism The authors suggest IAA both directly affects transport and increases root sink strength.
- Mechanism The authors propose that IAA promotes rooting by increasing sugar availability at the site of root formation.
