β¦ Synopsis
Indole-3 acetic acid (IAA) strongly enhanced rooting ofeh ~lated pea epicotyl cuttings while gibberellic acid (GA3) enhanced rooting only slightly. The promoting effects of the hormones appeared not until 14 d after the onset of treatment. When GA~ and IAA were applied together, the initiation of rooting started already after 6 d after onset of treatment. It is suggested that gibberellin plays an important role, in combination with auxin, in the initiation of root formation in Pisum cuttings.

Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellic acid (GA3) enhanced the formation of roots on the stem cuttings of Abelmoschus esculentus. The effect increased considerably when both IAA and GA3 were applied together.
Phenylacetic acid (PAA), a naturally-occurring acidic plant growth substance, was readily taken up by pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Alderman) stem segments from buffered external solutions by a pH-dependent, non-mediated diffusion. Net uptake from a 0.2 ΞΌM solution at pH 4.5 proceeded at a constant rate
The velocity and intensity of basipetal transport of ~4C-labelled indol-3yl-acetic acid (IAA) applied to the apical bud of the intact pea plant were influenced by the temperature to which the stem was exposed and were not influenced by changes in the temperature of the root system when this was cont
