RT Journal T1 METHYL JASMONATE INCREASES ACTIVITIES OF ALDEHYDE OXIDASE AND AUXIN CONTENTS IN MAIZE (Zea mays) A1 D. Han A1 Y. Oh A1 W. J. Park JF Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences JO JAPS SN 1018-7081 VO 25 IS 1 SP 314 OP 317 YR 2015 FD 2015/02/01 DO DOI NA AB
Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) affects diverse developmental processes, although it has been extensively investigated as a defence hormone. MeJA likely controls plant development through cooperation with other hormones, especially with auxin. In this study, we found that exogenously applied MeJA increased aldehyde oxidase (AO) activities in the roots and leaves of maize (Zea mays). In addition, MeJA increased the level of free IAA in leaves, suggesting that MeJA increased the contents of free IAA by regulating AO activities.
