The GA1 gene of Arabidopsis thaliana encodes ent-kaurene synthase A (KSA), which catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthetic pathway of the plant hormone gibberellin (GA). Its location in the GA biosynthetic pathway has led to speculation that KSA regulation is one of the controlling
Gibberellin levels in imbibed Arabidopsis thaliana seeds are regulated by light via phytochrome, presumably through regulation of gibberellin biosynthesis genes, AtGA3ox1 and AtGA3ox2, and a deactivation gene, AtGA2ox2. Here, we show that a loss-of-function ga2ox2 mutation causes an increase in
Red light (R) has a dual effect on the seed germination of the two related species Arabidopsis thaliana and Sisymbrium officinale. The two species provide different means to separate the light-effects. In S. officinale, stimulation of germination by R depends on the stimultaneous presence of nitrate
Changes in the sensitivity to gibberellin (GA) after vernalization were studied in the vegetative rosette of Eustoma grandiflorum and late flowering Arabidopsis thaliana mutant, fca-1. The sensitivity to GA after vernalization was monitored using the bolting rate of plants that were grown on a
Genetic approaches using Arabidopsis thaliana aimed at the identification of mutations affecting events involved in auxin signalling have usually led to the isolation of auxin-resistant mutants. From a selection screen specifically developed to isolate auxin-hypersensitive mutants, one mutant line
A method for the analysis of gibberellin A1 (GA1), gibberellin A3 (GA3) and gibberellin A4 (GA4) in Arabidopsis thaliana by matrix solid-phase dispersion extraction (MSPD) and high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was developed. The solid sample of Arabidopsis
The physical location of plant hormones is an important factor in maintaining their proper metabolism, perception, and mediated developmental responses. Thus, unveiling plant hormones dynamics at the molecule's level is essential for a comprehensive, detailed understanding of both their functions
The regeneration of shoot buds from callus cells in vitro is an important technique in modern plant genetic manipulation. Whilst it is clear that genetic factors play a major role in determining the ability of callus cells to become organized into regenerating shoot buds, the precise nature of these
Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. is a quantitative long-day (LD) rosette plant in which stem growth is mediated by gibberellins (CAs). Application of GAs to plants in short-day (SD) conditions resulted in rapid stem elongation and flower formation, with GA4 and GA9 being equally effective, and GA1
To examine the role of gibberellin hormones (GAs) in tolerance to apical meristem damage (AMD), we characterized the reaction norms of several GA-deficient and insensitive mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana in response to AMD and compared them to those of the wild type, Landsberg, from which they were
A gene (At4g20010) involved in regulating flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. was identified by promoter trap T-DNA tagging. Plants containing a T-DNA insert in the 3'-UTR of At4g20010 flowered later under both long- and short-day conditions compared with control plants. Histochemical
Although abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GAs) play pivotal roles in many physiological processes in plants, their interaction in the control of leaf growth remains elusive. In this study, genetic analyses of ABA and GA interplay in leaf growth were performed in Arabidopsis thaliana. The
BACKGROUND
The use of exo-16,17-dihydro-gibberellin A5-13-acetate (DHGA
5 ) in agriculture has been limited by its low synthetic yield. This study was aimed at optimizing the synthetic route of DHGA

The ga2 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana is a gibberellin-deficient dwarf. Previous biochemical studies have suggested that the ga2 mutant is impaired in the conversion of copalyl diphosphate to ent-kaurene, which is catalyzed by ent-kaurene synthase (KS). Overexpression of the previously isolated KS
Twenty gibberellins (GAs) have been identified in extracts from shoots of the Landsberg erecta line of Arabidopsis thaliana by full-scan gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and Kovats retention indices. Eight of them are members of the early-13-hydroxylation pathway (GA53, GA44, GA19, GA17, GA20,
