What is Some Effects of 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid on the Carbohydrate Methobolism of Etiolated Corn Seedlings about?

Copious amounts of research have been directed at attempting to elucidate the basic mechanism or mechanisms of action of plant growth-regulating materials. Despite the intensive and persistent efforts of research workers to solve this problem, the basic mechanism or mechanisms of action of plant growth-regulators are not known (56). Since 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is one of the earliest known synthetic plant growth-regulating compounds, more research has been directed at attempting to elucidate its basic mechanism of action than for any other compound. A major area of research on the basic mechanism of action of 2,4-D is its effects on plant metabolism. Recently, Humphreys and Dugger (80, 81, 82) noted that 2,4-D affected the catabolism of glucose in etiolated corn seedlings (Zea mays L.) by increasing the participation of the pentose phosphate pathway in glucose catabolism (Figure 1). Their in vivo work indicated that glucose catabolism was accommodated almost entirely via the pentose phosphate pathway in the roots of 2,4-D treated corn seedlings. These results stimulated the research in this dissertation, which v;as undertaken to evaluate the effect or effects of 2,4
