RESUMO
Subhook swelling of 4-day-old etiolated pea seedlings (var. Alaska), caused by 0.5 microliter per liter ethylene, was prevented by preincubation and continued growth in 0.1 mm gibberellic acid (GA). The subhook region exhibited normal elongation and cell size and volume. However, inhibition of elongation and cessation of cell division caused by 0.5 microliter per liter ethylene in the apical hook region of the etiolated pea stem were not overcome by GA. Most of the arrested cells were in G2. These data suggest a possible interaction of GA and ethylene in cell enlargement in the subhook region of the etiolated pea seedlings. They also suggest a different mode of action by ethylene in the apical hook region where the ethylene effect was not counteracted by GA.
