Abstract excerpt
In this study, ageotropum pea mutant was used to determine the threshold time for perception of an osmotic stimulation in the root cap and the time requirement for transduction and transmission of the hydrotropic signal from the root cap to the elongation region. The threshold time for the perception of an osmotic stimulation was compared to current estimates of threshold times for graviperception in roots. The...
