(11) SAUR transcripts were expressed in the epidermis, cortex, and starch sheath of epicotyls and immature hypocotyls.
(12) Whether induced with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or cycloheximide, SAURs are primarily expressed in epidermal and cortical cells of elongating hypocotyl sections, with little or no expression in vascular tissue.
(13) Complete inhibition of protein synthesis is not required for SAUR accumulation in the presence of protein synthesis inhibitors.
(14) SAURs were also expressed in developing xylem elements of the hypocotyl hook.
(15) We used in situ hybridization to localize two classes of auxin-regulated transcripts, GH3 and SAURs, within organs and tissues of soybean seedlings and flowers.
(16) SAUR transcripts became more abundant on the bottom side of hypocotyls that were undergoing gravitropic curvature.
