The effect of penicillin on apical dominance was investigated in gram (Cicer arietinum L.) seedlings. Application of penicillin to the decapitated stump was found to reestablish apical dominance in preventing the growth of lateral buds. Penicillin was seen to mimic auxin action in this system. Penicillin inhibition of lateral bud growth was relieved by the simultaneous application of antiauxins like 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid and maleic hydrazide. An increase in auxin-synthesizing capacity of the treated tissue has been suggested as the possible mode of action of penicillin in the regulation of lateral bud growth.

The effect of IAA on apical dominance in apple buds was examined in relation to changes in proton density (free water) and membrane lipid composition in lateral buds. Decapitation induced budbreak and enhanced lateral bud growth. IAA replaced apical control of lateral buds and maintained paradormancy. Maximal inhibition was obtained when IAA was applied immediately after the apical bud was removed; delaying application reduced the effect of IAA. An increase in proton density in lateral buds was observed 2 days after decapitation, whereas the change in membrane lipid composition occurred 4 days later. Removing the terminal bud increased membrane galacto- and phospholipids and the ratio of unsaturated to corresponding saturated fatty acids. Decapitation also decreased the ratio of free sterols to phospholipids in lateral buds. Applying thidiazuron to lateral buds of decapitated shoots enhanced these effects, whereas applying IAA to the terminal end of decapitated shoots inhibited the increase of proton density and prevented changes in membrane lipid composition in lateral buds. These results suggest that change in water movement alters membrane lipid composition and then induces lateral bud growth. IAA, presumably produced by the terminal bud, restricts the movement of water to lateral buds and inhibits their growth in apple.

A previous investigation of apical dominance in the rhizome of Agropyron repens showed that keeping the rhizome in a high humidity promoted the outgrowth of the lateral buds but strongly inhibited the growth of the rhizome apex. A study of these related responses demonstrated that the inhibition of apical growth was not prevented by excision of the lateral buds and was also induced when only the apex of the rhizome received the high humidity treatment. The necrotic lesions that developed in the arrested apices and the reduction of apical inhibition produced by various Ca treatments indicated that the inhibition of apical growth was caused by Ca deficiency. When the rhizome apex was exposed to low humidity, a localized high-humidity treatment of the lateral buds did not release the buds from apical dominance in low-N rhizomes but strongly promoted bud growth at a higher N level. When growth of the buds was induced at low humidity by increasing the N supply, the increase in bud weight was preceded by an increase in the water content of the bud when expressed on a dry weight basis. These results agree with those of previous investigations and suggest that the interacting effects of N and humidity on the water status of the buds may play a significant role in the mechanism of apical dominance.

Stem Segments

Lateral buds at the cotyledonary nodes of soybean plants grown under the conditions used in this study usually remain inhibited. These buds grow when the apical part of the plant is removed. They will grow, but less strongly, when the roots as well as the apex of the plant are removed and the basal end of the cut stem is placed in a mineral salt solution. Bud growth is further diminished by decreasing the length of stem left attached to the bud. The cotyledon is essential for bud growth on plant segments maintained in nutrient solution, but it can be replaced by a 1% sucrose solution during the early days of bud growth. Buds which are completely detached from the stem and placed in 1% sucrose do not elongate, but a small number of cell divisions are detectable, indicating that the early events of the release from inhibition have occurred. Buds elongate when they are apically or centrally located on stem segments. Increasing the length of the attached stem segments increases the growth of the buds. Additions of the cytokinin benzyladenine to plants causes a dramatic increase in bud growth when buds are attached to stem segments but does not stimulate growth of buds without stem segments. It is concluded that benzyladenine alone will not substitute for a factor(s) present in the stem which is necessary for bud growth. Increasing stem lengths above buds located at the basal ends of segments inhibits bud growth. It is suggested that this may be due to an accumulation of endogenous auxin at the site of the buds.

Agropyron Repens

When plants of Agropyron repens L. Beauv. are grown at a high nitrogen level (210 p.p.m. N) apical dominance in the rhizome is sufficiently reduced to permit the continued growth of the lateral buds. If, however, the rhizome is isolated from the parent shoot the dominance of the apex is markedly increased and lateral bud growth is strongly inhibited.Experiments with these isolated, high-nitrogen rhizomes showed that apical dominance could be significantly reduced either by increasing the length of the rhizome or by retarding the growth of the rhizome apex by exposing it to light. The growth potential of the lateral buds declined rapidly as the duration of their attachment to the rhizome apex was increased. This effect was associated with the translocation of carbohydrate to the rhizome apex and could be overcome by providing the isolated buds with a 2% sucrose solution. When buds were isolated from the rhizome apex before their growth potential was exhausted a marked increase in their carbohydrate content was apparent after 48 h. This increase was associated with their resumption of growth. Buds still attached to the apex could be released from inhibition by supplying sucrose solutions to the cut end of the rhizome.The results suggest that, under the experimental conditions, apical dominance was due primarily to competition for a limited carbohydrate supply.

The effect of Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) on apical dominance in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) buds was examined by studying changes In proton density (free water) and membrane lipid composition in lateral buds. Decapitation induced budbreak and enhanced lateral bud growth. IAA replaced apical control of lateral bud paradormancy. Maximal inhibition was obtained when IAA was applied immediately after the apical bud was removed. Delaying this application weakens the effect of IAA. An increase in proton density in lateral buds was observable 2 days after decapitation, whereas the change in membrane lipid composition occurred 4 days later. Decapitating the terminal bud induced an increase in membrane galacto- and phospholipids. and the ratio of unsaturated to corresponding saturated fatty acids. Decapitation also induced a decrease in the ratio of free sterols to phospholipids in lateral buds. Application of IAA to the terminal end of decapitated shoots inhibited the increase of proton density and prevented changes in the membrane lipid composition of lateral buds.

AbstractKnot-free timber cultivation is an important goal of forest breeding, and lateral shoots affect yield and stem shape of tree. The purpose of this study was to analyze the molecular mechanism of lateral bud development by removing the apical dominance of Pinus massoniana young seedlings through transcriptome sequencing and identify key genes involved in lateral bud development. We analyzed hormone contents and transcriptome data for removal of apical dominant of lateral buds as well as apical and lateral buds of normal development ones. Data were analyzed using an comprehensive approach of pathway- and gene-set enrichment analysis, Mapman visualization tool, and gene expression analysis. Our results showed that the contents of auxin (IAA), Zea and strigolactone (SL) in lateral buds significantly increased after removal of apical dominance, while abscisic acid (ABA) decreased. Gibberellin (GA) metabolism, cytokinin (CK), jasmonic acid, zeatin pathway-related genes positively regulated lateral bud development, ABA metabolism-related genes basically negatively regulated lateral bud differentiation, auxin, ethylene, SLs were positive and negative regulation, while only A small number of genes of SA and BRASSINOSTEROID, such as TGA and TCH4, were involved in lateral bud development. In addition, it was speculated that transcription factors such as WRKY, TCP, MYB, HSP, AuxIAA, and AP2 played important roles in the development of lateral buds. In summary, our results provided a better understanding of lateral bud differentiation and lateral shoot formation of P. massoniana from transcriptome level. It provided a basis for molecular characteristics of side branch formation of other timber forests, and contributed to knot-free breeding of forest trees.

Hormonal regulation of apical dominance in soybeans is dependent on the physiological stage of the lateral buds. In 7-day-old plants the cotyledonary buds are in an active state of mitosis and the application of a single hormone, gibberellic acid (GA) is effective in releasing the buds whilst indole acetic acid (IAA) is ineffective in inhibiting the buds of decapitated plants. In 16-day-old plants in which mitosis in the cotyledonary buds had ceased, a combination of both benzyladenine (BA) and GA was required for bud growth. BA initiated mitosis and GA promoted elongation. Application of IAA to the apical cut surface of these plants was effective in maintaining the inhibition of cotyledonary buds, and this inhibition could be overcome by a direct application of BA and GA to the inhibited buds. This study has shown that the growth of the inhibited cotyledonary buds in soybeans is regulated not only by auxins but by an interaction between auxins, cytokinins, and gibberellins. The effectiveness of any one of these hormones in inhibiting or promoting growth of the buds is dependent on the age of the plant.

A study of environmental effects on lateral bud growth in the sunflower, Helianthus annuus, showed that the provision of a high relative humidity (90 ± 5%) in conjunction with a high light intensity (about 30 000 lx) and an abundant N supply (420 ppm) permitted the buds at the basal nodes to escape from apical dominance and to develop as lateral branches. A reduction in any one of these three factors was sufficient to prevent the release of the buds from inhibition. The marked effect of humidity on bud growth suggested that the degree of water stress is the factor most likely to limit the growth of the lateral buds under field conditions. The mode of action of water stress and the N supply is discussed in relation to the genetic control of bud activity and to the role of nutrient competition in the mechanism of apical dominance.
