Notizen:
Nodule-roots of Myrica cerifera (Southern Wax Myrtle) and Casuarina cunning hamiana (Australian Pine) have a negative geotropic curvature. Studies of their endogenotts auxin content revealed a pattern of correlation: the absence of detectable auxin when the geotropisni was negative. Non-nodulated roots of Myrica exhibited a normal positive geotropic curvature and possessed an auxin content within an anticipated range (10 mg/kg). Root nodules of Alnus species, whose roots exhibit a positive geotropic curvature, contained measurable endogenous auxin (20 mg IAA/kg).The presence of an indoleaectic acid oxidase system in Myrica and Casuarina root nodules has heen described and correlations are drawn between non-detectable endogenous auxin concentrations and high enzymatic activities.It is suggested that the negative geotropic curvature of the nodule-roots of Myrica and Casuarina is due to the presence of a sub-optimal concentration of auxin which in turn results from the activity of an indoleacetic aeid destroying system.
