In this issue we described a dwarf mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana, sax1, which is affected in brassinosteroid biosynthesis. This primary defect is responsible for alterations in hormone sensitivity of sax1 plants characterized by the hypersensitivity of root elongation to abscisic acid and auxin and the insensitivity of hypocotyl growth to gibberellins and ethylene (Ephritikhine et al., 1999; Plant J. 18,...
