Abstract: The effect of short and long term auxin treatments on the elongation of axillary buds and32P accumulation were studied in 2-leaf decapitated Alaska pea sailings. It was found that (1) auxin delayed the elongation of the lateral buds, (2) none of the auxin concentration applied completely inhibited the elongation of axillary buds, (3) auxin had no retarding effect on the growing buds, (4) strong polarization of 32P occurred in the parts above the treated leaf, when auxin was applied for a short period just after decapitation, (5) long term auxin treatments did not induce any such polarization of 32P to the parts above the treated leaf, (6) the root acted as an alternate accumulating organ for 32P when the apex was removed and the buds were inhibited, and (7) in decapitated plants the growing buds polarized 32P. |
