Abstract

IAA oxixase activity was very high in stem cuttings of Salix tetrasperma and Populus robusta, which rooted profusely, less in stem cuttings of Hibiscus rosa sinensis which rooted less, and insignificant in those of Eucalyptus citriodora which did not root at all. Protein(s) extracted from the stem cuttings of E. citriodora inhibited the activity of IAA oxidase as well as root formation on hypocotyl cuttings of Phaseolus mungo. The possibility of involvement of IAA oxidase activity in the process of adventitious root formation is discussed.
