Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Maximum gynophore extension growth was 2-5 mm from the tip.
- Observation During the first 0-4 h after reorientation, new upper-side growth zones emerged.
- Observation During the first 0-4 h, the lower-side elongation zone decreased in size and magnitude.
- Observation By four to six hours, upper and lower maximum-growth zones were nearly equal in size and location.
- Intervention effect Ovule-region excision dramatically decreased gynophore growth rate and gravitropic response.
- Intervention effect Auxin-transport inhibitor permitted some growth but disrupted normal gravity response.
