Movement in Plants
Turgor movements (changes in turgor
pressure in selected cells)
Growth movements (elongation of selected
cells in response to stimulus)
phototropism
geotropism

Hormones
Signal molecules produced at specific
locations.
Occur in low concentrations.
Cause altered processes in target cells at
other locations.

Plant growth substances
Artificially synthesized substances
which produce hormone like
responses

General plant hormones
Auxins
Gibberellins
Cytokinins
Abscisic acid
Ethylene

Auxin
7/30/2019 Hormones Plants
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hormones-plants 20/38
Auxin associated with phototropism - early experiments
demonstrate tip as receptor.

Auxin
Discovered as substance associated with
phototropic response.
Occurs in very low concentrations.
Isolated from human urine, (40mg 33 gals-1)
In coleoptiles (1g 20,000 tons-1)
Differential response depending on dose.

Effects of Gibberellins
General cell elongation.
Breaking of dormancy.
Promotion of flowering.
Transport is non-polar, bidirectional
producing general responses.

Function of cytokinins
Promotes cell division.
Morphogenesis.
Lateral bud development.
Delay of senescence.
Stomatal opening.
Rapid transport in xylem stream.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hormones-plants 33/38
Functions of abscisic acid
General growth inhibitor.
Causes stomatal closure.

Action and Interaction of
Hormones
Constitutive enzymes - always present but
level of hormone can affect level.
Adaptive enzymes - formed or activated as
a result of the presence of a hormone.
