Hormones play a central role in the coordination of internal developmental processes with environmental signals. Herein, a combination of physiological, genetic, cellular, and whole-genome expression profiling approaches has been employed to investigate the mechanisms of interaction between two key plant hormones: ethylene and auxin. Quantification of the morphological effects of ethylene and auxin in a variety of mutant backgrounds indicates that auxin biosynthesis, transport, signaling, and response are required for the ethylene-induced growth inhibition in roots but not in hypocotyls of dark-grown seedlings. Analysis of the activation of early auxin and ethylene responses at the cellular level, as well as of global changes in gene expression in the wild type versus auxin and ethylene mutants, suggests a simple mechanistic model for the interaction between these two hormones in roots, according to which ethylene and auxin can reciprocally regulate each other's biosyntheses, influence each other's response pathways, and/or act independently on the same target genes. This model not only implies existence of several levels of interaction but also provides a likely explanation for the strong ethylene response defects observed in auxin mutants.
Изучены некоторые особенности биологии Saussurea orgaadayi на хр. Чихачёва. Обсуждаются вопросы, связанные с биоморфой вида, онтогенезом, структурой ценопопуляции, а также с семенной продуктивностью и всхожестью семян. По биоморфе S. orgaadayi относится к моноцентрическим короткокорневищно-стержнекорневым летнезеленым травянистым монокарпикам. Онтогенез представлен 5 онтогенетическими состояниями (проростки, ювенильное, имматурное, виргинильное, генеративное). Полночленная дефинитивная ценопопуляция имеет базовый спектр с максимумом на имматурном состоянии. S. orgaadayi размножается только семенами и характеризуется высокими семенной продуктивностью и всхожестью семян (в лабораторных условиях).
