Summary

In maize coleoptile segments, anaerobiosis completely inhibits IAA-induced cell enlargement, H+ extrusion and K+ uptake, while it only partially inhibits the stimulating effect of FC on the same processes. Very similar results are obtained by blocking protein synthesis with cycloheximide. As anaerobiosis blocks protein synthesis within 15 min, we conclude that the block of protein synthesis, and not the drop of ATP per se is the cause of the different response of IAA and FC to anaerobiosis.
