Petiole growth in Ranunculus sceleratus: the role of growth regulators and the leaf blade

Abstract: In the presence of the leaf blades, excised petioles of the semiaquatic celery-leaved buttercup Ranunculus sceleratus L. elongate when submerged, or when treated in air with indoleacetic acid (IAA), gibberellin A3 (GA3), or C2H4 alone or in combination, responses that are similar to those obtained using intact plants. Isolated petiole sections do not respond to C2H4, but are responsive in the presence of low levels (10−6 mol L−1) IAA. Gibberellin A3 is less active than IAA in promoting growth or in sensitizing… Show more

“…A shorter paclobutrazol pretreatment of 4 d in combi nation with GA} treatment did restore the growth response upon submergence completely, but in this case petiole growth was not reduced to air-grown levels by the pretreatment. A similar effect of the synthetic GAbiosynthesis inhibitors 2'-isopropyl-4'-( trimethyl ammo nium chloride)-5'-methylphenyl piperidene-1-carboxylate (AMO-1618) and 2-chloroethyltrimethyl-ammonium chloride (CCC) has been reported in R anunculus sceleratus (Samarakoon and Horton 1983). However, in Ca/lit riche plat y ea r pa (Musgrave et al 1972) and deepwater rice (Raskin and Kende 1984a), inhibition of the submergence response with GA-biosynthesis inhib itors could be completely relieved by G A 3.…”

This inhibiting effect on elonga tion could be counteracted by application of 10"* ' M IAA or 1 0 M NAA, showing that the inhibition is auxinspecific and demonstrating the obligatory presence of auxin in submergence-elicited petiole elongation.…”

“…Ranunculus sceleratus petioles were detached according to Samarakoon and Horton (1983) by removing a leaf with fully expanded lamina and cutting off the petiole at 25 mm from the lamina. For drained conditions of de tached petioles with lamina attached, petioles were in serted through Parafilm, spread over a 100-nil beaker, into the test solution, thus leaving the lamina in air (cf.…”

“…In volvement of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), gibberellin (GA) and abscisic acid (ABA) in depth accommodation has been described for a number of amphibious species i.e. Callitriche platycarpa, Ranunculus sceleratus and Oryza saliva (Musgrave et al, 1972;Musgrave and Walters, 1973;Samarakoon and Horton, 1983;Suge, 1985;HoffmannBenning and Kende, 1992). However, for species of the genus Runie.w little is known of the role of other plant hormones other than ethylene in the process of depth accommodation.…”
