    The synthesis of indole-3-acetic acid by the industrially important white-rot fungus Lentinus sajor-caju under different culture conditions
    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2003) Yurekli, F; Geckil, H; Topcuoglu, F
    The synthesis of plant growth hormone auxin, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is not only confined to flowering plants. Yeasts and other fungi are also known to produce this hormone and in many cases at higher levels than plants. The main concern of this study was to determine the physical and chemical conditions necessary for optimal biosynthesis of this hormone by Lentinus sajor-caju. Glucose was determined to be superior to sucrose as carbon and energy source. The synthesis of IAA in a nitrogen-free medium or in a medium with low external phosphate was substantially reduced. Light exposed and non-agitated cultures grown in dark had also reduced levels of IAA compared to agitated cultures grown in dark. The highest (0.18 mg ml(-1)) IAA level was determined in cultures grown in glucose containing medium (pH 7.5) on a rotary shaker (150 rpm) at 30 degreesC in dark. The biological activity of IAA obtained from the extra-cellular culture of Lentinus sajor-caju was determined using oat coleptile growth test.

    Variations in abscisic acid, indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellic acid and zeatin concentrations in two bean species subjected to salt stress
    (Polska Akad Nauk, Polish Acad Sciences, Pas Branch Cracow, 2004) Yurekli, F; Porgali, ZB; Turkan, I
    Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is sensitive to drought and salinity, while an ancestral legume, tepary bean (P. acutifolius A. Gray) is cultivated successfully where high temperature and drought are common (Lazeano-Ferrat and Lovatt, 1999). Hence, P. acutifolius is a potential source of stress tolerant traits for P. vulgaris through interspecific hybrids. This study comparatively evaluated the effects of salt stress on leaf relative water content (RWC), soluble protein, the phytohormones indole acetic acid (IAA), gibberellic acid (GA(3)), zeatin, and abscisic acid (ABA) levels in P. vulgaris and P. acutifolius. With the exception of ABA, stress-induced changes in hormonal levels putatively related to stress tolerance have not been investigated previously in either species. Treatment with 50 mM, 100 mM and 150 mM NaCl reduced relative water and protein content in P. vulgaris, but did not affect relative water content and increased protein content in P. acutifolius. Varietal differences between P. vulgaris and P. acutifolius were also observed in hormonal content during the stress period. ABA levels in salt-treated plants of P. vulgaris increased but did not change in P. acutifolius versus the controls. Both IAA and gibberellin levels increased in leaves of P. acutifolius but decreased in P. vulgaris under salt stress. In salt-treated plants, zeatin concentrations in leaves of P. vulgaris decreased within 24-72 h after treatment. However, P. acutifolius responded to all tested NaCl levels by increasing zeatin concentrations after short-term NaCl treatment.
