Paper doi abstract bibtex A quantitative study of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) turnover, and the contribution of tryptophan-dependent and tryptophan-independent IAA-biosynthesis pathways, was carried out using protoplast preparations and shoot apices obtained from wild-type and transgenic, IAA-overproducing tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants, during a phase of growth when the level of endogenous IAA was stable. Based on the rate of disappearance of [13C6]IAA, the half-life of the IAA pool was calculated to be 1.1 h in wild-type protoplasts and 0.8 h in protoplasts from the IAA-overproducing line, corresponding to metabolic rates of 59 and 160 pg IAA (μg Chl)−1 h−1, respectively. The rate of conversion of tryptophan to IAA was 15 pg IAA (μg Chl)−1 h−1 in wild-type protoplasts and 101 pg IAA (μg Chl)−1 h−1 in protoplasts from IAA-overproducing plants. In both instances, IAA was metabolised more rapidly than it was synthesised from tryptophan. As the endogenous IAA pools were in a steady state, these findings indicate that IAA biosynthesis via the tryptophan-independent pathway was 44 pg IAA (μg Chl)−1 h−1 and 59 pg IAA (μg Chl)−1 h−1, respectively, in the wild-type and transformed protoplast preparations. In a parallel study with apical shoot tissue, the presumed site of IAA biosynthesis, the rate of tryptophan-dependent IAA biosynthesis exceeded the rate of metabolism of [13C6]IAA despite the steady state of the endogenous IAA pool. The most likely explanation for this anomaly is that, unlike the protoplast system, injection of substrates into the apical tissues did not result in uniform distribution of label, and that at least some of the [2H5]tryptophan was metabolised in compartments not normally active in IAA biosynthesis. This demonstrates the importance of using experimental systems where labelling of the precursor pool can be strictly controlled.
