Metabolism of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in apical shoots of Populus
tremula (L.) x Populus tremuloides (Michx.) was investigated by feeding a
mixture of [12C]IAA, [13C6]IAA, and [1[prime]-14C]IAA through the base of
the excised stem. HPLC of methanolic plant extracts revealed eight major
radiolabeled metabolites after a 24-h incubation period. Comparison between
feeds with [5-3H]IAA and [1[prime]-14C]IAA showed that all detectable
metabolites were nondecarboxylative products. The purified radiolabeled
HPLC fractions were screened by frit-fast atom bombardment liquid
chromatography-mass spectrometry for compounds with characteristic fragment
pairs originating from the application with 12C and 13C isotopes. Samples
of interest were further characterized by gas chromatography-mass
spectrometry. Using this procedure, oxindole-3-acetic acid (OxIAA),
indole-3-acetyl-N-aspartic acid (IAAsp), oxindole-3-acetyl-N-aspartic acid
(OxIAAsp), and ring-hydroxylated oxindole-3-acetic acid were all identified
as IAA metabolites. Furthermore, a novel metabolic pathway from IAA via
IAAsp and OxIAAsp to OxIAA was established on the basis of refeeding
experiments with the different IAA metabolites.
