RESUMO
The uptake and accumulation of exogenous indoleacetic acid-14C by intact rice coleoptiles were examined. The absorption of exogenous indoleacetic acid was controlled by phytochrome, while the subsequent accumulation of this indoleacetic acid in various portions of the coleoptile was complex, and the effect of red light in this system was small compared to the alteration of the uptake of indoleacetic acid by red light. The absorption of indoleacetic acid exhibited two phases: the first occurring during the first 3-hour portion of the incubation was an inhibition, while the second was a promotive effect at about the 5th hour of incubation. Both of these effects were red, far redreversible, implicating phytochrome in this effect. Neither the destruction nor the immobilization of this exogenous indoleacetic acid apeared to be greatly affected by red light irradiation. The principal interaction between phytochrome and indoleacetic acid appears to occur during the absorption of exogenous indoleacetic acid. This effect may be related to the control by phytochrome of the amount of auxin which diffuses from coleoptile tips.
