| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The elongation of floral stem of Arabidopsis was inhibited by hyper-gravity. The expression of Aux/IAA19, an auxin responsive gene, was also inhibited by hyper-gravity. Auxin is known to loosen cell wall. From these results, we speculated that hyper-gravity down regulates auxin and then the elongation of floral stem of Arabidopsis was inhibited by down regulated auxin signal. However, molecular sizes of xyloglucan were not different between wild type and auxin accumulated mutant. To understand the relationship between auxin and reconstruction of cell wall polysaccharide and cell elongation on gravity resistance, more detailed analyses have to be performed.
On the other hands, the expression of some genes encoding cytoskeletal proteins, such as myosins, was affected by hyper-gravity. We consider that the total analyses of gravity resistance system including cytoskeleton is important.
