Environmental Control of Hypocotyl Elongation [PDF]
The hypocotyl is the embryonic stem connecting the primary root to the cotyledons. Hypocotyl length varies tremendously depending on the conditions. This developmental plasticity and the simplicity of the organ explain its success as a model for growth regulation.

Comparison of different methods of proline application to alleviate the effect of nickel stress on germination and seedling growth of Cucumis melo var. Flexousus [PDF]
Nickel is an essential microelement, but the increased concentration it in the medium disrupts the germination and growth of plants. In the present study, the effect of pretreatment and exogenous proline in the seedling growth of Cucumis melo under ...

The combined effects of light intensity, temperature, and water potential on wall deposition in regulating hypocotyl elongation of Brassica rapa [PDF]
Hypocotyl elongation is a critical sign of seed germination and seedling growth, and it is regulated by multi-environmental factors. Light, temperature, and water potential are the major environmental stimuli, and their regulatory mechanism on hypocotyl ...

Unlike typical negative gravitropic curvature, young hypocotyls of Brassica rapa and other dicots exhibit positive gravitropism. This positive curvature occurs at the base of the hypocotyl and is followed by the typical negative gravity-induced curvature.
