A study of the mechanism of thigmomorphogenesis in plants, with special reference to the role of ethylene and its significance to research with plants in space
Year: 1979
Type: article
Abstract: Because of the paucity of data concerning thigmomorphogenesis, all aspects of the phenomenon were under study, although the role of ethylene mediation was central to the approach. Although this report must necessarily point to a specific time in ongoing research, several aspects of the study reached at least temporary stopping points and were therefore written and submitted for publication. These are identified. Other papers which are currently in preparation, but not yet submitted, are also identified. The phenomenon of thigmomorphogenesis is divided into the sensory function, transduction step(s) and the response function.
