IBR5, a Dual-Specificity Phosphatase-Like Protein Modulating Auxin and Abscisic Acid Responsiveness in Arabidopsis

From: Plant Cell | Date: December 1, 2003| Author: | Copyright information

Auxin is an important plant hormone that plays significant roles in plant growth and development. Although numerous auxin-response mutants have been identified, auxin signal transduction pathways remain to be fully elucidated. We isolated ibr5 as an Arabidopsis indole-3-butyric acid-response mutant, but it also is less responsive to indole-3-acetic acid, synthetic auxins, auxin transport inhibitors, and the phytohormone abscisic acid. Like certain other auxin-response mutants, ibr5 has a long root and a short hypocotyl when grown in the light. In addition, ibr5 displays aberrant vascular ...
