Abstract

Pretreatment of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) petiole sections with one of several metabolic inhibitors greatly stimulated the movement of 3-amino-2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid (amiben) and (2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid (2,4-D). However, the movement of 3-amino-s-triazole (amitrole), 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methylurea (linuron), and isopropyl m-chlorocarbanilate (chlorpropham) was stimulated only slightly or not at all. The basipetal movement of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was inhibited by concentrations of 2-sec-butyl-4,6-dinitrophenol (dinoseb) which stimulated respiration (5 × 10−7 M to 5 × 10−8M). Acropetal movement was stimulated by dinoseb concentrations greater than 10−5M. Translocation of root-applied amiben and 2,4-D to the stems and leaves of whole plants of bean, squash (Curcurbita pepo L.), and cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) was stimulated by dinoseb root applications only at concentrations which were highly injurious to the plants. Amiben, 2,4-D, and their metabolites were extracted from dinosebtreated and untreated tissues. The stem exudate from cucumber plants fed amiben and 2,4-D via the roots contained primarily the parent compounds, which indicates that the parent compounds are the primary components translocated through the xylem.
