| Abstract/Contents: | "The control of tiller bud growth during reproductive development was investigated in experimental plants of L. multiflorum var. westerwoldicum that were reduced to a main axis having a developing but unemerged ear, elongating stem internodes, a series of expanded leaves, slow-growing tiller buds and a root system. Isolation of the ear by excision of its base, or decapitation so as to remove the ear together with the upper leaves, promoted the movement of 14C assimilates to tiller buds, decapitation being the more effective treatment. Application of 0.1% IAA to cut tissues of decapitated plants diverted 14C assimilates to upper internodes but did not reduce import by buds, whereas application of 1.0% IAA both diverted labelled assimilates to upper internodes and reduced bud import. Radio-activity from 14C-IAA applied to the upper leaves or to the ear base was recovered from buds in very small amounts; large amounts were recovered from buds following the application of labelled IAA to an elongating internode, especially from the bud at the base of the treated internode. It is suggested that tiller bud suppression may be influenced by the movement of inhibitory levels of auxin into buds from nearby elongating stem internodes, whose activity in turn may be controlled by the developing inflorescence and upper leaves." |
