How do plant growth substances work? II

TREWAVAS, A.·1991·Plant, Cell & Environment

Abstract

Abstract. This article continues the discussion on sensitivity prompted by the publication of an earlier paper by the author in 1981. It is indicated that appropriate measurements of sensitivity can help uncover the function of growth substances in development. The experimental constraints which are necessary for unambiguous measurements of sensitivity are outlined and it is shown that a specific sensitivity measurement, termed control strength, would most readily clarify function and help obviate controversy. Methods for measuring control strength which deal with the problem of compartmentalization are considered and it is suggested that stochastic variation in single cell biochemistry might provide a constraint on the accuracy of control strength determinations.

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.
