Role of endodermal cell vacuoles in shoot gravitropism.

Journal of plant growth regulation - 1 Jun 2002

Kato Takehide, Morita Miyo Terao, Tasaka Masao

Abstract excerpt

In higher plants, shoots and roots show negative and positive gravitropism, respectively. Data from surgical ablation experiments and analysis of starch deficient mutants have led to the suggestion that columella cells in the root cap function as gravity perception cells. On the other hand, endodermal cells are believed to be the statocytes (that is, gravity perceiving cells) of shoots. Statocytes in shoots and...
