Abstract
Evidence has been sought for an interaction between native auxin and manganese in vivo by observing the effect of an excess of manganese on the growth and photosensitivity of etiolated oat seedlings. Intact plants were supplied with manganese via their roots in conjunction with other growth-modifying treatments, glycine, ethanol, carbon dioxide, and nitrates. The data show that neither growth nor photosensitivity was changed by the additional manganese; consequently no evidence for the occurrence of such an interaction was obtained.Keywords
