Abstract

Mung bean (Phaseolus aureus Roxb.) cuttings were used to study enzyme changes during root initiation. Gel electrophoresis of protein extracts from the hypocotyl tissue revealed the emergence of a major protein complex during the early stages of root initiation. This protein fraction showed multiple enzymatic function including polyphenol oxidase, peroxidase, and indole-3-acetic acid oxidase. Two root-promoting substances, indoleacetic acid (IAA) and catechol, enhanced the activity of the protein complex during the early stages of root initiation. The significance of this isozymic activity with respect to the modulation of rooting promoting factors is discussed.
