[Effect of gibberellin and auxin on the synthesis of abscisic acid and ethylyne in buds of dormant and sprouting potato tuber].
Gibberellic and beta-indolylacetic acids at concentrations of 10(-7)-10(-5) M were shown to change the hormonal status and duration of dormancy in potato tubers. Gibberellic acid shortened the dormancy and decreased the contents of abscisic acid and ethylene in apical meristems. beta-Indolylacetic acid elongated the dormancy, decreased abscisic acid production, but caused a more than tenfold increase in the production of ethylene by apical tissues. The data suggest that beta-indolylacetic acid and ethylene, as well as gibberellic and abscisic acids, are involved in the regulation of dormancy in potato tubers.
