Abstract excerpt
Auxin has been shown to enhance root growth inhibition under aluminum (Al) stress in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). However, in maize (Zea mays), auxin may play a negative role in the Al-induced inhibition of root growth. In this study, we identified mutants deficient in the maize auxin efflux carrier P-glycoprotein (ZmPGP1) after ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis and used them to elucidate the contribution...
