    Notes: Abstract The pH-driven accumulation of [3H]indolyl-3-acetic acid (IAA) has been found to occur in membrane vesicles of lupin (Lupinus albus L.) hypocotyls. Most of this association of auxin with membranes is very sensitive to osmotic shock, high concentrations of permeable weak acids, incubation at 20° C for 20 min and to some ionophores. Long incubation times also depress the ability to accumulate radioactive IAA but this ability can be partially restored by a treatment that presumably reconstitutes the pH gradient across the membranes. Two specific inhibitors of auxin transport, N-1-naphtylphthalamic acid and 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid, stimulate net IAA uptake with an optimum at about 10-6 M (pH 5.0). At least two auxin carriers appear to be present in the lupin membrane vesicles. An uptake carrier seems to be saturated at 10-7 M IAA in the presence of N-1-naphtylphthalamic acid, but higher IAA concentrations are needed to saturate an efflux carrier. The uptake carrier also shows a high affinity for IAA and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and a low affinity for 1-naphthylacetic acid.

    Notes: Abstract The elongation growth of etiolated hypocotyl segments of lupin (Lupinus albus L.) was stimulated by acid pH (4.6 versus 6.5) and by IAA for periods of up to 4 h. After this time, the segments were unable to grow further. In the presence of an optimal IAA concentration (10 μM), acid pH increased the growth rate but had no effect on final growth. With suboptimal IAA (0.1 μM), however, acid pH increased growth in a more than additive way, suggesting a synergistic action between the two factors. This synergism may be explained by the increased IAA uptake and decarboxylation seen at an acid pH. These results reinforce the view that the effects of low pH and IAA on growth are not independent. Vanadate inhibited growth and also IAA uptake and decarboxylation. This inhibitor, therefore, probably inhibits growth not only by decreasing ATPase-mediated acidification but also by decreasing H+-dependent IAA uptake from the apoplasm. This dependence of IAA uptake on ATPase may be mediated by apoplasmic acidification. The amount of IAA decarboxylated increased when the assay conditions favored the growth of segments, indicating that IAA could be destroyed by decarboxylation during the auxin-induced growth.

    Notes: Abstract Ethylene and polyamine metabolism, both sharing a common precursor, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), were investigated during detached tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. nothovar F1 “Lorena”) fruit ripening. Putrescine (PUT) was found to be the major polyamine in the fruits, always over 100 nmols/g FW, while spermidine (SPD) was between 7% and 3% of the level of PUT. Spermine (SPM) was not detected at any stage of ripening. The level of PUT and SPD, did not change significantly during ripening in spite of the almost continuous synthesis of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), the ethylene precursor, and only at the last stage of ripening was a drastic decrease in SPD content observed. The results obtained show that the onset of ACC synthesis and its accumulation within the tissue is not a consequence of a decrease in SPD synthesis.
