A comparative effect of IAA and 4-Cl-IAA on growth, nodulation and nitrogen fixation in Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek

Abstract: The plants of mung bean (Vigna radiata L.Wilczek) were raised from the seeds soaked in water (control), IAA or 4-C-IAA (10 -6 , 10 -8 or 10 -10 M) for 8 or 12 h. The plants were allowed to grow in a net house and were sampled at 30 and 45 days after sowing (DAS). Both IAA and 4-Cl-IAA significantly affected the growth (length, fresh and dry mass of roots and shoots), the number of nodules, their fresh and dry mass and the activity of nitrogenase. However, the contents of nitrogen and carbohydrate exhibited a d… Show more

“…Nevertheless, with a higher maximum stimulation of 101% and a broader 3.2‐fold dose increase in the lettuce assay, compounds like PCIB may hold a more favourable potential for crop enhancement and may allow using low doses that may under no circumstances turn inhibitory. In contrast to the sesquiterpene lactones and PCIB, glyphosate and the natural auxin indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA) do not stimulate root elongation under standard conditions in the lettuce assay, although biomass growth‐enhancing effects have been previously observed in other test systems for both compounds (Ali et al. , 2008a,b; Cedergreen, 2008a,b; Cedergreen et al.…”

“…Increases in nitrogenase and leghaemoglobin content up to 32% and 45% were observed at 45 days after sowing when plants were treated with 10 −8 M exogenous IAA as compared with untreated plants (Ali et al . 2008). Greater nitrogenase and leghaemoglobin production in the nodules resulted in higher N 2 fixation as measured by acetylene reduction activity in nodules induced by IAA overproducing rhizobia compared with the wild‐type strain (Kaneshiro and Kwolek 1985).…”

“…It was confirmed by other studies that plant growth regulators containing synthetic hormones stimulate root system growth too, increasing nutrient uptake form the soil (Hwang and Sakakibara, 2006). Ali et al (2008) reported that auxins are leading factors in this process, acting as signals informing about the state of physiological processes in cells and about growing demand for nutrients, this way attracting them. Thus, high quantities of soil nutrients are absorbed by the roots, and big amounts of them are transported from vegetative to generative parts.…”
