We report our studies on root gravitropism indicating that reactive
oxygen species (ROS) may function as a downstream component in
auxin-mediated signal transduction. A transient increase in the
intracellular concentration of ROS in the convex endodermis resulted
from either gravistimulation or unilateral application of auxin to
vertical roots. Root bending was also brought about by unilateral
application of ROS to vertical roots pretreated with the auxin
transport inhibitor N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid. Furthermore, the scavenging of ROS by antioxidants
(N-acetylcysteine, ascorbic acid, and Trolox) inhibited
root gravitropism. These results indicate that the generation of ROS
plays a role in root gravitropism.
