Plant hormones• “Hormone” was first used to describe
substances in animals– “a substance produced in a gland that
circulates in the blood and has an effect far away from the site of production”
• In plants used to mean a compound that acts at low concentrations to affect growth and development.

Plant hormones• Five plant hormones known by the mid 1960s,
new compounds called plant growth regulators Signal molecules produced at specific locations.Occur in low concentrations.Cause altered processes in target cells at other
locations.
• The five hormones– Auxins– Cytokinins– Gibberellins– Ethylene (ethene)– Abscisic acid
• Other plant growth regulators– Brassinosteroids– Salicylic acid– Jasmonic acid– Systemin

Plant hormones
• First plant hormone discovered was auxin, the chemical responsible for photo- and gravitropic responses
• The chemical itself was first isolated from horse urine, it is indoleacetic acid
![Page 18: Plant Hormones & Tropisms Controls of growth, development and movement.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e6a5503460f94b66fd9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
AuxinAuxins primarily stimulate cell elongation
Auxins also have many secondary actions: root initiation, vascular differentiation, tropic responses, apical dominance and the development of auxiliary buds, flowers and fruits.
Auxins are synthesized in the stem and root apices and transported through the plant axis.
Auxins are often most effective in eliciting their effects when combined with cytokinins.

Auxin as a weed killer• Many synthetic auxins are
used as selective weed killers and herbicides. 2, 4 - D (2, 4 - dichloro phenoxy acetic acid) is used to destroy broad leaved weeds. It does not affect mature monocotyledonous plants. Causes a plant to grow itself to death
• More readily absorbed by broad-leaved plants
• Most often the “weed” of ‘Weed and Feed’ lawn fertilizers
![Page 25: Plant Hormones & Tropisms Controls of growth, development and movement.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e6a5503460f94b66fd9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Parthenocarpy
• Auxin induces parthenocarpy, i.e., the formation of seedless fruits without the act of fertilization.
![Page 26: Plant Hormones & Tropisms Controls of growth, development and movement.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e6a5503460f94b66fd9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Control of abscission by Control of abscission by auxinauxin
Formation of an abscission layer at the base of petiole or pedicel results in shedding of leaves, flowers or fruits. But auxins inhibit abscission, as they prevent the formation of abscission layer.

The infamous side of auxin• Active ingredient in Agent Orange• Chemicals with auxin activity
sprayed (together with kerosene) on forests in Viet Nam to cause leaf drop (and fire)
• The chemical process used to make the auxins also made dioxin, an extremely toxic compound

CytokininsCytokininsCytokinins are able to stimulate cell division and induce shoot bud formation in tissue culture.
They usually act as antagonists to auxins.

Interaction of Interaction of cytokinin and cytokinin and auxin in auxin in tobacco tobacco callus tissuecallus tissue
High cytokinin to auxin ratio causes differentiation of shoots.A low ratio of cytokinin to auxin causes root formation. Intermediate cytokinin to auxin ratio causes formation of roots as well as shoots.Intermediate cytokinin to low auxin causes growth of large amount of callus.

GibberellinGibberellinGibberellins are an extensive chemical family with over 80 different gibberellin compounds in plants but only giberrellic acid (GA3) and GA4+7 are often used in plant tissue culture The main effect of gibberellins in plants is to cause stem elongation and flowering. They are also prominently involved in mobilization of endosperm reserves during early embryo growth and seed germination.
![Page 33: Plant Hormones & Tropisms Controls of growth, development and movement.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e6a5503460f94b66fd9/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Gibberellins• Now known to be
essential for stem elongation
• Dwarf plant varieties often lack gibberellins
• Gibberellins are involved in seed germination– gibberellins will induce
genes to make enzymes that break down starch
• Promotion of flowering.
![Page 34: Plant Hormones & Tropisms Controls of growth, development and movement.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e6a5503460f94b66fd9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Gibberellins are involved in bolting of rosette plants
Gibberellin induces stem elongation in rosette plants. Cabbage is a rosette plant with profuse leaf growth and retarded internodal length. Just prior to flowering, internodes elongate enormously. This is called bolting. Bolting needs either long days or cold nights. When a cabbage head is kept under warm nights, it retains its rosette habit. Bolting can be induced artificially by the application of gibberellins under normal conditions.

Abscisic acid (ABA)
• Incorrectly named, not related to abscission, slows plant growth
• Important in drought stress and other stresses• Causes stomatal closure• Prevents premature germination of seeds
(enhances dormancy)• Changes gene expression patterns

Ethylene• The smallest hormone• A gas• Important in seed
germination, fruit ripening, epinasty, abscision of leaves
• Sex expression in cucurbits

Functions of ethyleneFunctions of ethyleneGaseous in form.Rapid diffusion.Affects adjacent individuals.Fruit ripening.Senescence and abscission. Interference with auxin transport. Inhibition of stem elongation Positive feedback mechanisms amplify responses in
organisms. Amplification occurs when the stimulus is further activated which, initiates an additional response that produces system change.
