    Notes: Abstract The distribution of elongation and surface pH patterns along the primary roots of maize (cv. LG 11), maintained vertically in humid air (darkness, 22°C), have been analysed quantitatively. A new technique employing Sephadex G 25 beads containing a pH indicator dye (bromocresol purple), was used for measuring both the growth gradient of the roots (Sephadex beads as markers) and at the same time, the surface pH changes (referring to a standard scale). The optimal axial growth was located between 2 and 4 mm from the tip. This coincides with the optimal decrease in surface pH.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The anti-auxin 4-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid (PCIB) applied at a concentration of 10-2 mol m-3 to maize root segments was found to induce a transmembrane electrical potential of up to-130 mV (Δpd of 30 mV). The kinetics of this response were comparable to the time scale for PCIB-stimulated H+-extrusion. Both effects are eliminated by the addition of p-fluoromethoxycarbonyl cyanide phenylhydrazone (FCCP). Treatment with fusicoccin (FC) and PCIB together does not result in a hyperpolarization greater than with FC alone. Benzoic acid (10-2 mol m-3) had no effect on the transmembrane electrical potentials. These results are discussed in relation to a possible electrogenic proton pump which may be regulated by perturbations in the cellular auxin content or activity.
