- 1 Plant Physiology, Instituto de Investigaciones AgrobiolÓgicas de Galicia. C.S.I.C., Santiago de Compostela
The effect on growth of an aliphatic acid isolated fromCastanea sativa cuttings was studied as well as its interaction with IAA. TheAvena coleoptile straight growth test was used. A growth inhibition was observed in a wide range of concentrations. The compound lowered or suppressed the IAA induced elongation of theAvena coleoptilo growth sections.
