Gravitropism and development of wild-type and starch-deficient mutants of Arabidopsis during spaceflight.

Physiologia plantarum - 1 Apr 1998

Kiss J Z, Katembe W J, Edelmann R E

Abstract excerpt

The "starch-statolith" hypothesis has been used by plant physiologists to explain the gravity perception mechanism in higher plants. In order to help resolve some of the controversy associated with ground-based research that has supported this theory, we performed a spaceflight experiment during the January 1997 mission of the Space Shuttle STS-81. Seedlings of wild-type (WT) Arabidopsis, two reduced-starch...
