Abstract
IT has been reported that electrophoretic protein patterns of hypocotyledonary hooks of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, L., var. ‘Burpee's Stringless Greenpod’) were altered when the extracted proteins were incubated with the auxin indolyl-3-acetic acid (IAA)1. The alteration consisted of the complete elimination of one protein band. It seemed useful to determine whether this elimination of a protein could occur in vivo in tissue segments treated with IAA.
