Abstract excerpt
We have screened a large population of M2 seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana for plants which are resistant to exogenously applied indole-acetic acid (IAA). One of the resistant lines identified in this screen carries a dominant mutation which we have named axr2. Linkage analysis indicates that the axr2 gene lies on chromosome 3. Plants carrying the axr2 mutation are severe dwarfs and display defects in growth...
