Enhancement of Wall Loosening and Elongation by Acid Solutions

Open access

Abstract

The ability of low pH and CO(2) to induce rapid cell elongation and wall loosening in the Avena coleoptile has been examined with the use of a continuous growth-recording technique and an Instron extensometer, respectively. In particular, the properties of the response to hydrogen ions have been examined in detail and have been compared with the responses initiated by CO(2) and auxin. The optimal pH for growth is about 3.0, and both the maximal growth rate and wall extensibility are similar to that produced by optimal auxin. The timing (initiated in less than 1 minute) and duration (up to 2 hours) of the response to hydrogen ions, as well as certain other aspects of the growth and wall-loosening responses, are described. It is shown that the pH response can be clearly separated from the CO(2) response. Possible mechanisms for the initiation of the growth response to low pH are briefly discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
