PhotomorphogenesisMorphogenesis: development of plant organs –not directional.e.g. photomorphogenesis: developmental effects mediated by light

Photomorphogenesis vs. Phototropism
Morphogenesis: development of plant organs – not directional, e.g. photomorphogenetic effects mediated by phytochrome on seed germination and flowering.Tropism: directional growth response of plant organs to an environmental stimulus; results from differential growth (usually differential cell elongation)
10/16/22 8
TropismsGravitropism: growth directed by the gravitational fieldThigmotropism: growth response to touch Phototropism: growth response to light
10/16/22 9
Phototropism• Phototropism: growth toward (or away from) lightLight is perceived by blue lightphotoreceptors (phototropins)

Introduction • What is a plant hormone?
Plant hormone can be defined as a small organic molecule that elicits a physiological response at very low concentrations.
1. Synthesized by plants and broadly distributed within the plant kingdom.
2. Show specific biological activity at very low concentrations.
3. Display multiple functions in plants.

Plant Hormones •Plant hormones classification:•The five classical hormones: 1.Auxin 2.Cytokinin 3.Gibberellin 4.Abscisic acid 5.Ethylene
Additional substances considered as plant Hormones: 1.Polyamines 2.Jasmonates 3.Salicylic acid 4.Brassinosteroids5.Signal peptides

Major functions of auxin1- Promotes elongation growth in shoots (phototropism)2- Inhibits elongation growth in roots (gravitropism)3- Promotes lateral bud dormancy (“apical dominance”)4- Controls (with cytokinins) organogenesis in tissue culture

Actions of Auxin: Phototropism and Gravitropism
Phototropism is mediated by the lateral redistribution of auxin.

Developmental effects of Auxin–Auxin delays the onset of leaf abscission.
–Auxin transported from the blade normally prevents abscission.
–Abscission is triggered during leaf senescence, when auxin is no longer being produced.

Developmental effects of Auxin– Auxin promotes the formation of lateral and adventitious roots.

–GA biosynthesis occurs in developing seeds.
Biosynthesis and Catabolism of Gibberellins

–GAs are known to be regulators of many phases of higher plant development, including seed germination, stem growth, induction of
flowering, pollen development and fruit growth .
Gibberellins: Their Discovery and Chemistry
10/16/22 52
–From the time of their discovery, GAs were known to be effective in promoting stem elongation.
–Only few of the 136 known GAs have intrinsic biological activity. These include GA1, GA3, GA4, GA5, GA6 and GA7.
Gibberellins: Their Discovery and Chemistry
10/16/22 53
–GAs can stimulate stem growth in genetically dwarf mutants by promoting internode elongation.
Effects of Gibberellins on Growth and Development
10/16/22 54
–GA induces the synthesis of α-amylase in aleurone layer.–Cereal grains can be divided into three parts: the embryo,
the endosperm and the testa-pericarp. The endosperm is surrounded by aleurone layer .
