Is there a role for the apex in shoot geotropism?

Abstract:

:Experiments with horizontal etiolated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seedlings supported centrally such that both apical and basal ends are free to react to geostimulus, revealed that the apical end commences curvature 1 to 2 hours earlier than the basal end. The later curvature in the basal region is a consequence of the absence of growth in the initial period rather than merely slower growth. A comparison of zonal growth rates in a vertical and a horizontal seedling confirmed that geostimulus induces a renewal of growth in a region where growth had ceased. Removing the apical half of the hypocotyl showed that the curvature resulting from this growth initiation in the basal region is dependent on attachment to the apical region. Evidence that this dependence is unlikely to be due to energy deficiency is adduced. The prior response of the apical end to geostimulus and the apically dependent later initiation of new growth in the basal region are compatible with the delay inherent in message transport from apex to base and are considered as evidence for apical involvement in the totality of the seedling's georesponse.
