Abstract
Summary. The growth-inhibitory properties of synthetic dLdormin (Abseisin I1) and its trans, trans isomer were assayed using the oat mesoeotyl section. Growth of this tissue was promoted by IAA and GA; dormin inhibited the elongation caused by both compounds and also the small amount of growth that occurred in blank buffer. A given concentration of dormin inhibited growth to about the same proportion in all these cases. IAA and GA mixtures stimulated growth in the presence of 2.0 rag/1 dormin slightly more than the sum of growth with IAA + 2.0 mg/l and GA+2.0mg/1 dormin. At lower concentrations of dormin (0.02rag/1 and below) the relationship was reversed. Dormin inhibited growth slightly at 0.02 rag/1 but below that concentration it had no observable effect. Kinetin did not affect mesoeotyl elongation, nor did it interact with the inhibition of IAA- or GA-stimulated growth. The trans, trans isomer had 1/30th the activity of the natural 2-cis-4.trans compount; when they were assayed toge+A~er in mixtures of different proportions the inhibitions were additive. l~Iost experiments were carried out with GA a but dormin also inMbited the action of gibberellins 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 9. The action of dormin was net competitive with that of IAA or GA. The effect of dormin as an inhibitor of plant growth is discussed.
